Albuquerque, NM Apartments for Rent

In a state nicknamed “The Land of Enchantment,” a city has to be pretty special to stand out, and Albuquerque rises to the challenge. Straddling the Rio Grande, with the Sandia Mountains along its eastern side, you will find a city of staggering beauty and substance, boasting a unique combination of stunning natural surroundings and exceptional urban amenities. As the most populous city in New Mexico, Albuquerque is home to over half a million people. This means that the whole city is bursting with culture, personality, and endless unique avenues to pursue your passion… or discover a new one.

The cultural sites and museums in Albuquerque provide great opportunities to acquaint yourself with the rich history that made this city what it is today. Visit the Indian Pueblo Cultural Center to immerse yourself in the art, culture, and history of the area’s Native American roots. For a deeper look into the city’s Latin heritage, including Dia de los Muertos and flamenco dancing, pay a visit to the National Hispanic Cultural Center. The Albuquerque Museum of Art and History will show you the city’s humble beginnings as well as the artwork and traditions of the people through the ages. You can even take a walk through Old Town Albuquerque, which has served as the community’s focal point since 1706. Old Town is also a prime shopping and arts destination, home to an eclectic blend of shops and galleries where you’ll have the chance to buy directly from local artists and crafters.

For small, locally owned stores and boutiques, you should also check out Nob Hill, where you’ll find chic home décor, unique jewelry, and more. Downtown is another hotbed of specialty shops that feature contemporary jewelry and art by New Mexican artists. The state’s biggest shopping destination is ABQ Uptown, an outdoor mall packed with upscale stores like BCBG, MAC, and the Apple Store. The Coronado Center nearby also has more than 150 stores, including Macy’s, Banana Republic, and the Body Shop.

The arid and sunny climate allows you to spend tons of time outside, and Albuquerque is packed with great open-air recreation opportunities that are perfect for the whole family. Plan a day at the Albuquerque BioPark for a unique environmental experience as you explore each of its four facilities: Albuquerque Aquarium, Rio Grande Botanic Garden, Rio Grande Zoo, and Tingley Beach. The zoo allows you to see exotic and native animals, while the aquarium highlights the marine life of the Rio Grande and Gulf of Mexico. The Botanic Garden offers more than one and a half miles of lush and beautiful floral displays, and the beach is a great spot to fish the day away.

Tee off at Twin Warriors Golf Club or Paa-Ko Ridge Golf Club, both award-winning public golf courses. The surrounding landscape and scenery provide even more unique opportunities: take to the skies and get a bird’s-eye view of the city with one of the five hot air ballooning companies in town. Take a ride on the Sandia Peak tramway to the 10,378 foot crest of the Sandia Mountains (which is also a great place for skiing in the winter). Back at ground level, enjoy rafting, canoeing, and kayaking down the Rio Grande, or hit the trails for hiking and mountain biking through the rugged, untamed landscape just outside the city.

If you have kids that are still in grade school, it’s helpful to understand that the Albuquerque Public School system is one of the largest school districts in the nation, with 89 elementary schools, 27 middle schools, 13 high schools, and 10 alternative schools. The city also has many private, religiously affiliated schools, as well as schools for those with special needs, including the deaf. Albuquerque is home to the University of New Mexico, whose School of Medicine is one of the country’s best. Other high education institutions include Central New Mexico Community College, Southwest University of Visual Arts, Southwestern Indian Polytechnic Institute, and Trinity Southwest University.

Rent an Albuquerque apartment now to begin a brand new journey and explore a mixture of different cultures each time you wake up.
