Hello. I’m a native New Mexican and I advise not traveling to Albuquerque alone. I’ve lived here for the majority of my life and this city is not safe. I’ve experienced my fair share of break ins and robberies living in a suburban area. There’s a high crime rate here and do not walk down central by yourself once it’s dark.

United States

Located in the southwestern region of the United States, New Mexico is a state known for its stunning natural landscapes, rich cultural history, and vibrant blend of Native American, Hispanic, and Anglo traditions. It is famous for its vast desert expanse, including the white gypsum sand dunes at White Sands National Park, and the breathtaking heights of the Sangre de Cristo Mountains. New Mexico is also renowned for the unique adobe architecture seen in Santa Fe, its capital, which boasts a world-class art scene. Equally impressive are the state's ancient cliff dwellings and petroglyphs that stand as testament to its diverse indigenous heritage. Adding the gastronomic delights like the state’s signature green and red chiles and the annual International Balloon Fiesta in Albuquerque, New Mexico offers a feast for all senses.
