I dont like cold winters either but I dont think Abq's winter is all that bad,I've seen worse. The days are nice and sunny and the nights are cold but I dont spend too much time out at night in the winter. When I get off work at 9 p.m. its cold but not cold enough to wear a heavy jacket, I get by all winter with just a hoodie.

I went to El Paso in Feb. and we were outside and the wind was blowing and I was shivering cause it felt so cold, anyways around 1 in the morning the wind was gone and the weather was very nice.

I realize there will always be indiviual differences, but what is the overall culture like?
most people dont have a problem dating other cultures from what i've experienced. i'm white and dated many hispanic women when i lived there.

either way, you can always go to country bars like The Stampede or wherever if you feel you find more luck with white women in the city.

Again for me it's too cold !! It depends on where people have been raised as to their experiences with Hot or Cold weather or for Humidity even as to having a positive or negative effect as again for me personally no more 18 to 22 degrees no matter what city or state. Again i knew people in Florida and my relatives in Georgia who would never live in the southwest as they couldn't take the dryness as i am the opposite as i never cared for the high humidity and sweating constantly. Anyway one persons treasure is another persons trash and viceversa as the sayiing goes.

This is to username Observe:



I lived at the Citadel Apartments over on University & Indian School. I think that was either considered Northeast or Central. I worked at Ethicon Endo-Surgery for a 6-month Mechanical Engineering Co-Op/Internship. I know 6 months wasn't a long period of time but i still feel the way i feel about Burque.

Albuquerque hot..?
Ha Ha crazy talk ...as my co workers yesterday were complaining of the heat at 89 degrees....lol....

In the early 90's i was enjoying the heat and Beaches of living in Florida and enjoying every minute of it . What's a jacket in Florida??

89 degrees with little humidity is nothing.
