Urban developments make Rio Rancho the ideal place to own a home.
If you’re from out of state and interested in exploring the Albuquerque area to buy a home, there is a particular neighborhood in the region that you should definitely consider. Situated in the northwest part of Albuquerque, Rio Rancho is seen as a small city, but substantial urban development in recent years has made it into Albuquerque’s hidden gem. Today, I’ll explain the three things that made what was once a small commuter city into a now bustling business district, and why it’s the ideal place to buy your home:
- Fast urban growth. Rio Rancho has a hospital, schools, a college campus, restaurants, and other businesses. In particular, this area has witnessed a surge in businesses and residential growth, making it more than just a place to buy a home, but also an investment prospect.
- Top school ratings. If you want a good public school system for your child to grow and develop, look no further. Rio Rancho High School and Cleveland High School have higher ratings compared to other schools in New Mexico.
- Affordable homes. One of the most compelling reasons to move to Rio Rancho is the affordability and quality of housing. Imagine paying less for more. In fact, the quality of homes for sale in Rio Rancho is much better than listings in Albuquerque, yet at a notably lower price point. For example, a property priced at $650,000 in northeast Albuquerque is worth $500,000 to $550,000 in Rio Rancho.
