Love Where You Live and Work

Step off the floor and into the high-desert sunshine of Las Cruces, New Mexico, a university town with a friendly feel and low cost of living.

Awaiting you are miles of trails, acres of public land, and must-see monuments and parks–along with more than 300 days of sunshine each year–what’s not to love?
