This city had a great and safe down town area it was also verey clean. I though this city was going to be boreing and found out this under rated city is great and people should hear about and its greatness. And if you do not visit it will be your lose. Becuase this city is great with its mountains,rivers,trees, and lakes. This city also has great malls and shoping centers. I think this fast growing city might soon be biger then los Angles.

Albuquerque is a great city to live in... Unless you live in certain small sections of the city, you never see crime. Older parts of the city are kind of trashy but the city is trying to revamp them and they are doing a really good job. The city is really beautiful, and the weather is the best on earth!

Having lived in 6 different states & 8 different cities growing up, I have experienced many climates and a wide variety of scenery. None of those compare to Albuquerque's mild climate & breath taking scenery. Having lived in Albuquerque since 1973, I have seen the city grow & with that growth came changes both good & bad. The bad part for us ...

I heard so much about Albuquerque & Santa Fe so I decided to visit these two cities for the first time. Santa Fe was way overpriced, everything too expensive & had too much "attitude". On the other hand Albuquerque had a lot more to offer. I stayed downtown at the Hyatt Hotel & was very impressed. Albuquerque is a modern city with all ...

First of all there is nothing quirky in Albuquerque!Except maybe the spelling.It was named after a bishop from Spain during their colonial era.
Albuquerque is such a pretty town that its like being in one of the Disneyland parks,ie Frontierland. Taking a walking tour is one way to see the place at your own pace,tho we did one better.
In town we ...

We spent almost 4 days in Albuquerque. The weather was wonderful. The view of the Sandia Mountains was breathtaking. We stayed at the Baymont Inn, the staff there was friendly and the rooms were ok for the money. Not somewhere to stay if you want luxury, but for a clean bed and a decent free breakfast with an accessible location it was nice. ...

I found this to be a laid back and easy to navigate large city. Even though it's big, it seemed that drivers have patience there, which is something that the majority of those in my home state of Florida need. Anyway, the Rattlesnake Museum, Old Town, and the Rio Grande Zoo are all must sees. If you aren't afraid of hights, do take a ride ...

I liked everything. The food was delicious. Everyone is kind and curtious. The prices are very good. When you go you should skii at the Sandia Mountains and then kike the beautiful trails. You should also ride the Tram it is the longest in the world!

My wife and I loved Alb. We actually lived there for 3 years and can't wait to get back. We loved the laid back atmoshpere.

You have to go to the Balloon fiesta--it is unbelievable if the weather cooperates.

Food is awesome--there are so many good restaurants. Los Cuates on Lomas is our favorite. LosBetos has great breakfast ...
