I'm happy living here, though I'd say a more cohesive and vibrant urban strip along Central Ave. It's pretty cool as it is but I'd like to see the gaps filled in between Nob Hill, UNM, EDo, Downtown, and Old Town (especially between Old Town and downtown). The potential is there for sure.

Fewer cockroaches. I just spent a week away and when I got back, on the 45 minute walk home from the airport, I was dodging schnauser-sized aggressive bugs the whole way. It made me kind of sick to my stomach. Any neighborhood older than 30 years or so is swamped with the buggers.

Aside from that, a bit more rain, at least close to the historical average, so that we don't become known as the state where the native thorny poisonous weeds can't even survive.

Agree with the previous 2 comments.

A more vibrant downtown, and fewer cockroaches would be nice.

If I could change one thing about ABQ I'd cap the population in the metro area at 500k.

So, what do you do with the overage, since we're north of 900k already?


I do miss having a real water park (that Park Inn thing is nice and all but it's just not the same).
