Bros wanting to fight for no reason is odd and seems annoying I agree


The bros and females also. I was in some club on central. I was talking to some girl in the club and this girl just comes up and snatches her by her hair. She whipped this girl arse.

Also, dudes are always wanting to fight. No one has ever tried to start anything with me, but there are always fights or potential fights when I go out somewhere.

Albuquerque is fine. I guess you don't know where to live there.

And wtf is so bad with the people?


Albuquerque proper attracts a shitty mix of Natives, Mexicans, anarchists, hippies, and more Mexicans. The people on Central Ave (both east and west of UNM) are some of the most disgusting creatures I've seen in America. I would rather walk around the streets of Juarez after dark than parts of ABQ.

Where the OP is at (Sandia Heights I'm guessing) and Rio Rancho are just as nice as any Whole Foods sportin' suburb in America.

To use Breaking Bad references, OP lives in Hank's neighborhood and Central Ave is literally where crackwhore Wendy lived.

Artesia New Mexico is the best place to live if you move to NM. It's in south eastern New Mexico nice family oriented town!!


Artesia sucks. People come to Roswell to get away from Artesia.

I'd hit it.

I have a good friend I do business with and visit from time to time. He has a great house in a neighborhood that has all dirt roads.

I like the airport there. One of the easiest to get in and out of.

Wife and I vacationed in New Mexico over the summer, stayed in Abq for a few days but was basically in a different part of the state every day, just drove all over. We had a blast, loved the climate with no humidity.

The mornings and late evenings were very nice and it was easy to cool off if you got hot with some shade and some cold water from around 2-6pm

Not like here where the humidity kills any outdoor fun. The Sandia Mtns were beautiful, as well as Santa Fe.

I mean, twice the national average in pretty much every category seems to be my breaking point. At that point, you're almost guaranteed to be directly affected. But, yes, I know it was a silly statement.

Yeah, but the meth's good, right?

If I were there, I'd make pilgrimages to the original Microsoft headquarters and the Atomic Bomb Museum.

I am as close to the Sandia's as possible. Like I said, I am perfectly fine where I sleep, but have to go down into the city daily. It's depressing and the people suck.
