Hi my name is Elizabeth and my Son and I are looking for a place to live in Alamogordo NM USA that is pet friendly. We would prefer a house/ mobile home outside of town with plenty of land and the possibility of buying a home in the future. Please let me know if there is anything around I would appreciate all the help I can get since we don't know the area. Weather in fall,winter and spring especially and average humidity hopefully there is none. We would like a rural area and land with or without option to buy. All responses will be appreciated thank you very much. Elizabeth
P.S. if the temperature drops to around the 30's or lower than that I would like to find something that has a wood burning fireplace or stove if possible I would also like an older home or even a small farm. Thank you again.

Reason: Add something

There are plenty of "modest" rural homes of various types, including many mobile and modular homes.
"Plenty of land" can mean anything from a half-acre and up and there are many "modest" homes on small acreages. Whether you'll be able to find something you would want to live in is mostly a matter of being able to drive around and look when you arrive, as well as perusing the various ad sources (local newspapers, Craigslist, real estate web sites, etc.). Best of luck to you.
Thank you for your reply and I will start looking for a place what are the names of some of your local newspapers? I am sorry I am very unfamiliar with this town and I have been doing a lot of research on where the place I would like to call home is about. You didn't really answer my question on the weather can you please help me with that I am not well and I have to get away from humidity really bad as well as how cold it gets up here in the fall winter and spring. I would appreciate any response thank you.

What isn't apparent is that Alamogordo is but a half-hour drive from the mountain-top village of Cloudcroft and the Lincoln National forest. Because it's 5,000 ft. higher in elevation than Alamogordo, it's MUCH cooler in the summer, as well as winter, and provides a welcome respite from the high desert environment of Alamogordo.

There is a site similar to craigs list in the are called Bookoo. You can google Holloman Bookoo or Holloman Yard sales and look under the housing options. There is a lot available.
My wife and I live in Bent 50% of the time which is 20 minutes North East and maybe 15 degrees cooler. You might look up there or even in next-door Tularosa. It seems to be friendlier and has a nice quaint look. Not expensive ..
Good luck with your pet- My neighbors and us often end up being a repository for pets - they put them in my acreage across the street. Dogs go to my neighbor she boards horses and there is a troop of dogs. All good for short-term and free.
Unless you don't have a car try those places.
