May 2014

Coming originally from NJ, when I hit Albuquerque I knew this was the place for me. After many yrs of living in Albuquerque, I moved to a small rural town in the center of NM with an amazing view of the Manzano Mountains. I travel once a week to Albuquerque for groceries - We have Whole Foods, Vitamin Cottage, La Montanita Co-Op and Sunflower Market - with wonderful organic vegetables and fruits. New Mexico also has many farmers markets - the Santa Fe Farmers Market is an amazing experience. Even my little town of 2000 has a farmers market in the summer and homemade bread every Friday.

New Mexico has so many beautiful places for day trips and hikes.

Hi Sheila...How would youn compare Santa Fe to Taos in terms of living? whathehell Oct 2014 #16

I'd say that Taos would be much more isolated than Santa Fe. SheilaT Oct 2014 #17
