    Lived in Cruces for 24+ years. It's changed over the last few years. Immigration and homeless issues are really bringing in issues. Still have friends in the area.

      I agree. Changed a lot since I was in college at NMSU. Still a good place to live, especially coming from larger cities / towns.

    I think Mesilla is very nice , from just watching video's .I think they need to string some lights in the courtyard have some bands on the weekend , also a farmers market. some of the buildings could use nice painting of mexican style . It needs some life . I have sent my suggesting but no one has responded .I think with some improvements it will bring more visitors and people wanting to move there.

    I went to Las Cruces last November for my birthday on a solo and had so much fun! The downtown is so small but lit up at night and I had so much fun bar hopping and laughing with the people I met. White Sands, Carlsbad Cavern, all the hiking and trails nearby, the food, friendliness.. Ugh I miss it so much! I’m in New Orleans and I love it but I’m also so exhausted with the flooding, high crime, corruption, huge bugs, hurricanes, hellish heat and humidity.. I’m seriously thinking of moving there in the next few years. I’ll be back this September to explore even more! ❤️

    Please talk about the lack of healthcare and I stress care. I have experienced the laziest and rudest providers since moving here. It has been a terrible disappintment and yes I have experienced better care and treatment in many cities on both coasts and between. It’s frustrating and a major reason not to live here.

      Hi Angela! As a REALTOR®, this is something I can't comment on since I'm not an expert in healthcare. However, I've had one experience at the emergency room at night where we felt the level of professionalism was lower than we expected.

    My Camuñez family has been In Cruces for centuries. My Franco family about 125 yrs. I’m born and raised in AZ but I loved the stories my Grandmother used to tell me about being born/raised there and learning about Cruces and the restaurant my her uncle/aunt Earnie Camuñez started in Mesilla back in 39. Enjoyed the video !!

    Our family retired to LC 3 years ago from Florida.
    Good- Low-cost nice housing, Mexican food, winter outdoor activities, garbage pickup (seriously).
    Bad- Poverty, lack of good restaurants (except Dion’s and Si Senor Express), police force (shooting old ladies), it’s a Walmart town.
    We honestly gave LC a try and ended up moving after 2 years to Tucson. Think twice retirees.

      Thanks for your comment, I’m happy you found a place that you like. In my opinion, Tucson is by far worse with a lot more issues than Las Cruces , including water. But in any case, the goal is to find a place that you love to call home.

    I hear the pecan harvest makes the air very dirty cause they shake the dirt out of the trees. When is the harvest? How long does it last. What is prevailing wind direction? Thanks

    • @leviloveslascruces
      @leviloveslascruces  Před 7 měsíci

      Hi there! My apologies for the late response. The majority of farms start their harvest in October. It get's pretty dusty in the valley during harvest, but the good news is, it doesn't carry over to much of the city. If you are directly East of the farm, you'll get dust. If you live in town we don't notice it. Thanks for your comment !

Why go to a place where everything closes early and is not open on Sunday?

      I think it depends on where you are at in life. I used to hate Las Cruces, and New Mexico, and I loved LA. We went to LA last weekend, and I hated it. Didn't see what I used to. But that's the great thing about the USA, we have the option to move where we like when it's right for us. I love Las Cruces now. Places closing early has no weight in my decision to move to a town. I love being able to hike, ride ATV's, park without circling the block or having to feed a meter. Laid-back is what I'm looking for at this stage of life.
