Renter's Guide to Albuquerque
Located along the deserts of New Mexico, Albuquerque is a sight for sore eyes – or nature lovers.
With a huge number of parks both in and around the city – including over half a dozen national parks –Albuquerque is unbeatable when it comes to natural beauty.
In fact, US News recently rated Albuquerque as one of the top 50 best places to live. What's all the fuss about? We'll tell you.
Albuquerque is 189 square miles wide. For comparison, that makes it roughly half the size of Dallas, Texas and 33% the size of Phoenix, Arizona.
The city of Albuquerque sits 449 miles from Denver, 421 miles from Phoenix, and 267 miles from El Paso, the Texas city that's right on the Mexican border.
Albuquerque has a cool, semi-arid climate. You can count on at least 300 days of full sunshine per year, and the city spends about 15 to 20% of the year at temperatures over 90ºF.
Winter temperatures occasionally get close to or below freezing, but it rarely snows because of the city's low annual precipitation.
Spring and fall are very temperate, with cooler temperatures that hover in the 60s, 70s, and 80s.

Tips for Renting in Albuquerque
Before you start packing, let's talk about some of the tenant laws in Albuquerque.
By renting a property, you're agreeing to certain things, like paying rent and taking care of the property. If you fail to follow these rules, your landlord can give you a seven day notice – which has to come within 30 days of the rule that you broke.
During the first seven days, you have the opportunity to fix the problem; one example would be paying overdue rent. If you commit the same violation within six months of the first, the landlord will give you a second seven day notice.
But this time, you won't have the opportunity to fix the problem. You'll be forced to either move out within those 7 days or be evicted.
