What I mean by this, no doubt that the architecture and housing styles and Sante Fe 'theme' is an absolutely beautiful, gorgeous, and highly desireable.
It comes with extremely high prices though. However, the aesthetic look is relatively easy to reproduce. Is there much of a movement of new housing across New Mexico to have more of that look?
Are you talking about the Pueblo Revival or the Territorial? Pueblo revival is used throughout the state in new home construction. Territorial is also used but not nearly to the extent of Pueblo Revival. Oh, then there is the Norther NM Style with the high pitched metal roofs.

I was thinking of the Pueblo Revival.
When I randomly look at random New Mexico, I don't regularly see them very often. I'm thinking of random places like Deming, Clovis, Roswell, Silver City, etc.
I definitely notice them in cities like ABQ, Las Cruces, (and definitely Santa Fe itself). I'm thinking it's because ABQ and LC are continuing to grow. Where most of the other small towns throughout NM generally are not? So, many of them just have that old ranch look or other typical mainland america look, to some extent.
That being said, whenever I see the adobe type or pueblo revival type, I love it.
The Pueblo Revival style is an architectural style of the Southwestern United States which draws its inspiration from the Pueblos and the Spanish missions in New Mexico. The style developed at the turn of the 20th century and reached its greatest popularity in the 1920s and 1930s. It is still commonly used for new buildings, but with various modifications like interior 8, 10, 12 even 14 foot high ceilings, stucco instead of real adobe.
I see this style in a lot of new home construction throughout New Mexico... And even with the definition above, there can be a lot of variations.

How about in Eastern New Mexico? Roswell, Clovis, Portales, Hobbs, etc.?
