He's the best ambassador this state could have.

The weather in ABQ is very nice. Sunny most of the time. Low humidity. Not too hot. Cold doesn't last long.

Another thing I liked about ABQ is the food.

Lack of diverse cultural events.

You want to see culture? Go to Austin,San Antonio,and Orlando. You don't need to go to large cities like Chicago.

The Lack of Congestion - agree

The Cost of Living - but Albertsons will rip you off and Smiths has poor quality of choices. Every other expense is cheap.

Bio Park - The botanical garden is nice but everything else is unimpressive.
Wow, really?

Access to outdoor activities. Mountain biking is at the top of that list.

I personally love the Party Bus.

An Albuquerque standby since 1935, the ABQ Party Bus is the world's largest party bus, clocking in at a wheelbase of 88 feet, including pole dancing, hot tub, and complimentary tex-mex food, running up and down Lead and Coal avenues at 8 miles per hour.

Ok, maybe I made that up. Party bus? Really?
