Heading west on Alameda, you will find a variety of homes available. These vary from reasonably priced ones in little developments to more expensive ones whose very existence bump the entire area up a price notch or two. Chinese elms shade the streets and, for the gardeners, the ground abounds with organic matter. In the direction of the foothills and off Old Santa Fe Trail is a semi-rural area where you will find pinon and juniper forests and southwest views of the Sandia and Ortiz Mountains. You will find lots of families.
Homes show true pride of ownership.
