Why create a section for Las Cruces when one doesn't exist for Rio Rancho? After all, RR will eventually have over 100,000 residents.

Things seem to be fine the way they are. Without a bunch of sub form, it seems that we're one, big happy (?) family. ;-)

Albuquerque is a half million people with several suburbs and bedroom communities like Rio Rancho, Placitas, Los Lunas, East Mountains etc. If it is the Albuquerque metro area I try to keep that altogether, then everything else goes in the main New Mexico forum.

I personally don't see enough traffic to create a Las Cruces forum and I think the admis around here discourage too many sub forums in the various states unless they are big metro areas.

Some other states only have one sub forum, examples are New York State and Georgia. From what I can see, a subforum is usually only created for a fairly populated area.

But if we had lots of people that all of sudden wanted a LC forum we could ask.

I think the issue that started this is the number of posts, not the number of people. IMHO, RR should be part of Albuquerque sub-form.

I don't consider creating a sub-forum for both Las Cruces and
Santa Fe to be "clutter." If you click [New Mexico], you would
see Albuquerque
Las Cruces
Santa Fe and then general [New Mexico] bbelow that.

It all fits on a screen quite nicely and helps keep posts more
organized.

Yes to both Las Cruces and Santa Fe.
