cloudcroft is absolutely beautiful!! I would go there every weekend to eat at the lodge. I was born and raised in Alamogordo, and if Cloudcroft wasn't so dang cold in the winters, I would live there in a heartbeat! I would suggest looking into the inbetween in highrolls. It's the beautiful mountains but not as cold.

Differences
Alamogordo is HOT in the summer. Cloudcroft is COLD in the winter. Alamogordo is dry and desert. Cloudcroft is mountainy and piney. It is like this, Alamagordo is like Phoenix and Cloudcroft is like Flagstaff.

I've never spent any time in Alamagordo, but I have passed through many times. The town itself never impressed me, but it is right next to White Sands, which is really, really cool.
Cloudcroft is gorgeous, and most definitely snow ski country in the winter.

Alamogordo? Hot?
Sure, compared to Cloudcroft it's hot in the summer, but not nearly as hot as Phoenix. It's also a lot less humid than where I am, in Fort Worth, and humidity makes all the difference in the world as far as I'm concerned. Not to mention that the cool mountains are nearby, so you can get relief. Not so here; I've gotta go 600 miles for mountains. I want to move!  |

Alamogordo is a good safe town? Good for a family? Un-lock your doors type of town or?

I think it is a good town. It has a low crime rating and I don't hear about murders or stuff there. It is the kind of city you can walk out at night if you want. It is still a good idea to lock doors just to be sure, but Alamo is a pretty safe town. It is a family type of town.

Looking now. Thanks for a quick response. Small town, near a lake or mountains. Low crime, where would you start? |
