Why is Albuquerque so ghetto?

I bet they can break that $100 now, since $100 gets you barely half tank of premium in an F150.

Drove through about 17 yrs ago. Broad day light gas station couldn't break a $100 for fuel. So many robberies all the gas stations only kept about $20 in the register.

Ha truf gas is 6 bucks a gallon here wilmington,CA. It also shows how retarded taxes are in CA that a city that has like 3 refineries has high gas prices we should actually have some of the lowest gas prices in the u.s if it wasnt for all the bureaucracy in CA.

you got to worry about the brown recluse spider out here. They are poisonous as hell and if you get bit, they have to cut the infection area out. And it takes weeks to clean it out make sure the area is clean. My niece was left with a dent in her leg after she was bit as a kid.

of times. I try to avoid going to north NM.

We have those too. Not in abundance. But I know 2 people that did get bit, both cleaning out garages. One guy had a HUGE hole in his arm. The other got bit in the face and drove to the hospital, passed out in the emegency lane. He was lucky only had major swelling and didnt lose skin. But he almost died.

Bark scorpions are definitely a concern for me in AZ they seem to appear a lot less in las Vegas. Im no noob to scorpions I got stung by a less painful scorpion in mexico than the bark scorpion.

Don't stay at motels. At least you didn't get attacked by a Culebra

Is this a criptid, local to the area?

Team Jackson is there. Is their gun in the hood? Just like any city there are probably really nice parts too. Also obviously Breaking Bad was set there I'm guessing they really do have a huge meth problem and like someone else pointed out it has to be a lot easier to be a homeless addict or mentally ill person in a city with no winter.

Hahaha this is NM not AZ, we have a winter.. colder then shit like a freezer, just not as much snow as we would like.

I can understand avoiding Española or something but northern NM is beautiful.

Yeah there’s some cool scenery up there, I probably shouldn’t have generalized the entire north of the state.

I've been to University of New Mexico for a conference, and to be honest, my impression of the city wasn't that bad. This was in 2019, so I'm going to assume that not much has significantly changed about the city.

Unique architecture, beautiful landscape (if you are into geology and topography), and friendly people.

My only gripes is that a lot of people would start speaking to me in Spanish because they thought I was Mexican (I'm actually Guyanese) - the cashier at the Duncan Donuts gave me a nasty look when I told her I didn't speak Spanish. I think she thought I was "pretending" not to (which ironically, is something I deal with in Brampton).

I was also really disappointed that the one Mexican restaurant I went to was terrible. I love Mexican food, but it's hard to find a good place in my city - Albuquerque is supposed to have an amazing food scene, and I just happened to pick the one place that was sub-par.

While I wouldn't visit the city for a vacation, I wouldn't object to going back if work or social commitments required me to.

There is no Mexican food in the Southwest States; you will find CA/AZ/NM/TX - Mex food. If you wanted Mexican food in NM you would need to search for Oaxaca Restaurant Albuquerque or similar.

Minka Kelly attended HS there and people who met her when she cam to LA describe her as being ghetto as hell.

My Cousin bought a gorgeous house in Scottsdale. Apparently they are a bitch to get rid of. I do not remember the type she had, but they walked high on their legs and didnt drag their stomachs so sticky traps didn't work, neither did poison. Cost her thousands. She lived in a motel for a month while they worked. The Exterminator suggest she get 2 cats as well. She got two known for being great hunters-A shorthair and a Siamese. These fuckers catch everything including snakes.
