Welcome to Albuquerque, New Mexico.
Albuquerque is the largest city in the state of New Mexico, United States. It is the county seat of Bernalillo County, and is situated in the central part of the state, straddling the Rio Grande River.
As of the 2000 census, the city had a total population of 448,607. The metropolitan area has a population of 712,738 and includes the city of Rio Rancho, one of the fastest growing cities in the country.
The pace of living is a little slower and the people are friendly. It is a multi-cultural community combining the closeness of family and culinary delightfulness and magic of the Mexican American culture. Enhanced by the spiritual and artistic magic of the Native American culture. Cemented together by the know-how and motivation of the "Anglo" European Culture. And did I mention, the weather is wonderful.
Albuquerque is a city of contrasts. Nestled between the towering Sandia Mountains and the Rio Grande Valley, the city of Albuquerque is rich with culture and heritage, breathtaking landscape and equipped with vibrant energy that's indispensable to a fast-growing city.
Year after year residents flock to the city to enjoy Albuquerque's quality of life and developing business environment.
The city continues to grow its infrastructure, enhance its business policies and expand its outlook for current and future business prospects. The population continues to grow as well to accommodate the evolving environment.

Albuquerque is home to the University of New Mexico and Kirtland Air Force Base as well as Sandia National Laboratories and Petroglyph National Monument.
Nestled between the Sandia Mountains and the Rio Grande, Albuquerque's climate is usually sunny and dry, averaging no more than 10-12 inches (250 to 300 mm) of precipitation per year. The city hosts the Albuquerque International Balloon Fiesta every October. The Albuquerque International Balloon Fiesta started in 1972.
Albuquerque is also a center for tourism, attracting skiers, museum-goers, balloonists, and adventure-seekers of all kinds. Albuquerque's temperate climate, large number of sunny days, proximity to both mountains and rivers and central location along both old Route 66 and, later, Interstate 40 have been drawing people to Albuquerque for years.
Some have stayed for a few days, some for a lifetime, but nearly everyone who's ever been here has wonderful things to say about the city.
Albuquerque combines a unique blend of multi-culturalism, natural beauty, profound historic attractions, spectacular climate with four distinct seasons, museums, galleries and shopping to create a distinct and unforgettable visit for every kind of visitor.
Discover Albuquerque's allure when you explore Historic Old Town, where the Villa of Albuquerque was founded in 1706, or as you watch hundreds of hot air balloons ascending into blue skies during the Albuquerque International Balloon FiestaŽ, the world's largest, most photographed balloon event.

From mountain biking and hiking to playing a rousing game of golf on one of our famed golf courses, or perhaps taking a tour of one of Albuquerque's vineyards or browsing museums and galleries, there is a range of activities for any visitor.
