Default Ruidoso,New Mexico~~Read This~~Several Good Reasons

I have loved Ruidoso,New Mexico for most of my life,I live in West Texas ,but my hearts in Ruidoso!!!!! I shall return & thats definate COLD HARD FACT!!!!!!!!!!!

There are people that say that its a tourist town,that its very hard there to make a living,well not any more that I could see living close to Lubbock,Texas,the hardest place in the world to make a living.

Ruidoso has so much SCEENERY and breath taking views that borders the unreal.It has a lot of Scenic roads for lovers to take and enjoy,Its full of ARTIST,its got wildlife,the winters arent an worse than northern New Mexico,,The gas prices are the same as they are here in Lubbock,buy at walmart always on that as they are the cheapest.

Food prices are good most times because the big supermarket have sales on stuff that they wont other small communites.

There is a lot of expensive real Estate no doubt but you can find that nearly any where you go.Anywhere the real Estate is cheap its generally an area that is not well liked or RAIN fall is in short supply.

If your an artist,Ruidoso has the tourist that fill up the shops during the summer months,walking the street shopping.There are art galleries there as well.If your an artist,the breath taking scenic views are YOURS ONLY!!

I love it,I hope you travel there,but if you do,,DO NOT bother going for 1 or 2 days,YOU need a week to go and see all the scenic stuff,Larry

Larry82052,
We are on our way there next month to check it out some more. We are planning on moving in the near future. It does have some beautiful scenery.

I lived there for about 6 yrs. Had to move to a bigger city for work reasons. We still have land in the area and get back quite often. I'm going down in a couple of weeks to do a little hiking, photog, panning, relic hunting etc.

I imagine we will move back down there when we get closer to retirement in about 25 years or so.

Good post Larry.... i love the Sacramento mountains with all their Pine and Douglas Fir trees. We always camped at South Fork and had a blast there. The drive up to Sierra Blanca peak at 12,000 ft is an awsome view at the top !
