Ruidoso, NM
Thought I'd like it but no -
6/26/2021Dumpy little town that feels depressed. A few cute shops downtown but mainly consignments and junk stores. Restaurants and grocery stores aren't good. Locals seem a bit down and out. Really disappointing. Some nice scenery but the lakes aren't very vegetated. A hole in the ground that has a little water. Very hot, dry and dusty. Don't see a lot of rich Texans and Californians. More like middle to lower class.

3/18/2019You've got your 'facts' wrong. First, the average income in Denver is higher than in Santa Fe. Fact check. Comparing Santa Fe costs to California is laughable and comparing it to New York is preposterous. There is NO comparison when you ratio income to housing and account for overall cost of living. Clearly, you've never lived in these areas because Santa Fe is FAR cheaper. Second, Santa Fe isn't rated among the top 5 rudest cities in the US, it's one of the friendliest per the 2018 Conde Nast Reader's poll. I've found it extremely friendly, like small-town America. Third, tourism is thriving. In fact, Forbes Magazine rated it as a 2019 Top 14 Tourist Destination in the U.S. Additionally, Conde Nast ranked Santa Fe #2 in the 2018 15 Top Cities in the U.S.: Reader's Choice Awards. Fourth, where do you get your information that SF is a 'failed little town with a looming deficit?' This sounds like sour grapes. Get your facts straight Trump, err, Fool. I'm happy you don't live here.
