You might check out La Luz for land. I loved it there when we lived there!
Had a 1/2 acre. It was very nice. Cant wait to get back ourselves!!!

I still think talking to the local realtors might be you best bet on costs and what not. I would look at the area south of Alamo from the golf course to Oliver Lee State Park. You'll see scattered houses, trailers, corrals and horses etc..spread out over the 10 mile stretch.

Most of the land north of Alamo/La Luz to Tularosa is Ostrich farms, Pistachios, Vineyards etc..

You could look up into the Canyons like La Luz or Fresnal but you'll pay a premium price for the seclusion and views.

Best Wishes and again welcome to my favorate place in New Mexico...

Default Moving to Alamogordo

I am moving to alamogordo in Sept. We have been talking to a real estate agent. We have been looking at a homes online. The house is on Dewey lane. I am looking for any information about the area. (i.e crime, negihborhood and schools) and anything else you would like to share.

Would also like the same information about the baylor av and hendrix av area.


I have been reading alot about the floodzone. Will the area be in the floodzone?

Hi,
OK, Dewey Lane is in the flood zone, its down by the blind school. We looked at a house there 10 years ago and found that out.
Hendrix is at heights grade school, heard it was the best, but I don't have kids of that age. Baylor, is on the north side and I don't think it is in the flood, and it is Sierra elem for school. Not sure which school dewey lane is.
Your realtor should be able to tell you about the flood zones, and the ratings on the schools. Not sure about the crime in the areas.
Welcome to town..
Jane
