My DH and I discovered Las Cruces in 2006 and loved it. We had traveled around the country in our RV for 7 years, and loved the vibe and atmosphere here.

We came back again, and since we still felt the same way, decided to move here. We bought a piece of property with fabulous Organ mountain views, and had a house built.

We have been here a ...

Las Cruces is located in the great American Southwest—which is mostly a semi-arid desert with sparse vegetation. The weather, as you might expect, is best described as being harsh. There’s very little rain; and then there is too much rain. In between the rain patterns, there is sand blowing along with some hot wind in strong hot ...

There was not much for a tourist to see or do in the city of Las Cruces but you can drive only a couple miles and see the quaint villiage of Mesilla. This is a must see. Eat at La Posta or El Comedor, shop at Del Sol or the Book Center. Sit on the plaza and enjoy the warm New Mexico sun. We loved Mesilla and were so glad to find it. It has yet to be discovered.

This place has great climate, clean skies, and friendly people. It is like Southern California in the 1950's. Won't last long. There is some rapid influx of newbies and the flavor is changing rapidly. It is one of the best kept secrets in the Soutwest. Ooops! I let the cat out of the bag.

the have wonderful festivals and art shops it can be unsafe at night and be sure to lock all you doors at night but other than that it's a very special place!

Las Cruces is only an hour away from where I live. When my boyfriend and I want to get away we often find ourselves in Las Cruces. Las Cruces offers many various attractions, but still has a hometown feel to it. It is a nice place to go ad relax

La Posta, in Oldl Mesilla, was the only place that lived up to its reputation. Most of Las Cruces is overbuilt and has lost its charm.
