Rio Rancho
About 110,000 people.
Rio Rancho is a fast-growing city just northwest of Albuquerque with wide open skies and modern neighborhoods. It is a young city that grew from empty desert into a busy community.
You can watch a hockey game at the big events center, splash at a water park in summer, and enjoy long bike paths with mountain views.

A Brand New City
Rio Rancho is one of the youngest cities in New Mexico, planned and built mostly in the last sixty years. It is full of new schools, parks, and families who moved here for the sunshine.

Wide Desert Views
Sitting up on a high mesa, Rio Rancho offers big views of the Sandia Mountains and the Rio Grande valley. Sunsets here turn the whole sky orange and purple.
