Albuquerque is such a junky city, it has horrible transportation services,no tourist can come and enjoy a nice vacation...you gotto have your own car! plus the people aren't friendly and they are not used to tourists.
It is so dry and it barely rains during the winter, it is deserted you feel like no body lives there.it has horrible architecture and no trace for urbanism and cevilization, so if you haven't beeen to other urban places don't comment on my message.

I wouldnt say its deserted, you make it sound like tbere are only a handful of residents in the middle of nowhere.

I have been to probably more places than you have. Albuquerque isn't junky, and it is a tourist city many enjoy visiting. With the exception of the east coast most cities do not offer good rapid transit. Yes, you need a car, so what does that have to do with whether the city is junky or not. The people are very used to tourist: I have always found the people in ABQ very friendly.
The city never feels diserted, but you are right about 1 thing, there is very little rain, it is called desert, what would you expect? Why do you say there is no trace of urbanism?
If you live near a major bus route, ABQ Ride is actually a pretty good transit system. I work at client offices and shop a number of places for my two businesses, and there's only one client I can't get to on the bus. If I was in better shape, however, I could easily get there on a bike.
I found Houston, Tampa and Orlando transit systems to be horrible and those cities are all considerably larger than ABQ.
^yep, when you compare ABQ's transit to that of peer cities (i.e. same metro size) - Tulsa, Omaha, El Paso, Birmingham, AL etc, - it actually stacks up pretty well. It could be alot better, but it isn't terrible.
As for the O.P., if that isn't the definition of a troll post, I don't know what is. Also, I think it's telling that there tends to be a pretty strong correlation between blathering, unintelligent (i.e. unintelligable) posts and bashing (insert city X).
ABQ Ride is actually a pretty good transit system.
For people who live here, ABQ is, yes, "pretty good."
There are probably only one or two cities in the US with a good
transit system for tourists. I can say that anywhere in
Japan and only in Taipei for Taiwan, it's good for tourists.
I assume that many cities in Europe, transit caters to tourists, but
I also assume that for non-tourist destinations, same as the US.
...so if you haven't beeen to other urban places don't comment on my message.
How many people "haven't been to other urban places"? What a ridiculous qualifier. I have visited ABQ several times and have always enjoyed it. Your message is unbelievably negative, probably coming from under a bridge.
