I love how they only show the downtown area in Albuquerque when talking about the Eastside area 😂
😁
This video is hilarious! From calling neighborhoods suburbs, to pronunciation errors...very funny!
What the heck is Eastside??? I've lived here 20 years and have never heard any part of ABQ called that? Does she mean the heights? And her pronunciation of names is awful.
Ditto, this person is not from New Mexico. Eastside? Where is that and learn how to talk like your from "Burqe" lady
Ditto
The East Side should be recognized just as much as the West side
I have lived on the west side of ABQ , now in Rio Rancho
Eastside is the area east of the railroad tracks. A lot of it is the International District aka the War Zone. The Eastside also includes the heights.
"Eastside" is not a town. It's a generic designation for the city east of the Rio Grande. West of the river is called... wait for it... the West Side.
The actual dividing line is the Railroad tracks and North and South dividing line is Central Avenue.
@@donovanfoto3263 OK, postmaster general. I've been here 20+ years. The river is the unofficial line, regardless of what the mailing address says.
New Mexico has a wide range of housing prices depending on which town you choose. In Tucumcari, you can get a 2,000 sq foot brick, nice home in a nice neighborhood for around 100k. Tucumcari is remote, but has two huge lakes for boating nearby. Some retired people including myself find this to be a nice place. The crime rate in Tucumcari is very low. This is mostly because everyone knows each other and talks a lot.
The two lakes don’t have much water. Bad drought have emptied these two lakes
Right now the ABQ metro area prices are so artificially inflated, I hope it crashes hard and takes all the speculators down with it.
Lol tell me you've never been to NM without telling me you've been to NM
'Christmas , please🌶🌵
Interesting, but your announcer really needs to learn how to pronounce some of the area names. In particular, Burn-ahh-lee-yo. Bernalillo.
Better thankful for advertising than being fault finder✌️
@@i_wonder1967 More constructive criticism than anything else.
Muh-sill-uh LOL
This was driving me insane. Listening to her sound out the script was painful. A basic grouding in Spanish would be helpful.
bear-na-lee-yaw
As a New Mexico resident and being familiar with many aspects of the state, this video really misses the mark on several different levels.
pronunciation-poor
@@teresatrigiani7838 She's an inflooinser.
@@dawktadawg9031 I'm an oldie! Trying to understand these influencer jobs, They are digital nomads and get assignments to talk about crap they have no clue about? someone gives them a script to make a video? Help an
oldie understand please.
OMG! you're trying to entice people to Mesilla - at least learn how to pronounce it!!
Her pronunciation of Mesilla was truly embarrassing and insulting!!! I'm sure it wasn't intentional but JFC someone should have reviewed beforehand.
Her attempt to pronounce anything Spanish is atrocious!
My Word. It's "May See Ah".
i hear they make good tortilas in mesila.
the home she was showing while talking about rio Rancho is a million dollars
This video is not all true. I am in New Mexico & I couldn’t find the home for $190K. She doesn’t know what is happening with housing market. Lumber increased 400% since 2020.
This IS an old listing but $190,000 for the War Zone is possible.
In the time it took you to type your reply, it went to $235k
I would love to visit New Mexico, found my ancestors dated back many generations. Also, my last name is Corrales. So I'm definitely visiting there!
Corrales, is just north west of Albuquerque.
@@donovanfoto3263 thanks for the info. Hopefully someday.
Beautiful name
@@supermariotravels7225 thank you.
Definitely don't go by this video.
Yes it's a GREAT STATE but it is also CAR THEFT CAPITAL OF THE US in Albuquerque north east side. Part of the east side is the WAR ZONE. Mesilla (Mesi- Ya) is a beautiful place Corral-es is a nice little place. I moved to the War Zone six years ago, from San Diego, CA. Albuquerque is MUCH NICER. But many of the small towns are even better, like Pietown and Madrid (MAADrid, they get touchy about its pronunciation) and Las Vegas. The state is becoming VERY popular with the movie and television people, (Better Call Saul, Breaking Bad, Ho.eland, Independance Day 2, etc). We also have the VLA Very Large Array that was featured in Contact.
This car theft is primarily because of Mexicans. My car was broken into in Albuq -- and it was as Mexican. Just look at Mexico.
Shaun Schnapp: I heard that in San Diego, CA. I lived on the border for years and saw more Blacks and Whites breaking into cars. Then one night, coming back from Tijuana, I was in line ahead of two HISPANICS that just met. In Spanish the one guy told the other he had just gotten caught by the Border Patrol. He told them he was illegal and didn't speak English, he had no papers. They kicked him back into Tijuana. He then had a beer or two and crossed back to catch the trolley home.
It might be Hispanics but I doubt it was actual Mexicans.
Espanola is, or was the OVERDOSE CAPITOL as well.
This video provides minimum information for average humans interested in moving to New Mexico for a change in lifestyle, which may be a wise choice for many. These comments are only my opinions, but I have lived in New Mexico since 1974, so at least I'm familiar with most of the state. It seems to me that this presentation is mainly a realtor's pimping of crime-wracked greater Albuquerque (four of the seven destinations), with a nod to the Los Alamos National Labs area (two of the seven) for those who may wish to live in a rich-brainiac bubble. The mention of Mesilla (pronounced muh-SEE-ya, by the way) was an interesting choice, but there is very limited housing available within that Las Cruces suburb. If you're truly considering a move to the Land of Enchantment, do more research, and if possible, visit the state.
So true. I've only been here for 8 years and would nor recommend Albuquerque for anyone with small kids. The schools leave a lot to be desired and the crime is getting out of hand.
I was born and raised here and I'm not young, this state has deterioated so much and now with crime exploding, all the businesses shut dt because of the tyrannical governor, the transients, homelessness I would like to leave if I could but can't afford to!
@@bittersweet2253 Where would you go? The whole nation is on a downhill slide.
@@tonymunn true, but NM is declining at such a rapid pace, I've considered Texas even though it has it's own problems it would be preferable to living here.
@@bittersweet2253 Unfortunately Texas is in the process of being Califonianized. They'll start voting in failing state policies there also. I hope that NM can change for the better.
description doesn't match with what's shown in the video but thanks for sharing.
That's what happens when you have an East coaster do a video about New Mexico🤣🤣🤣 I'm sure she can make a green chile chicken cheese enchilada also🤣
You don't know a thing about New Mexico do you🤣🤣🤣
I'm native to Albuquerque. But never heard of a town called Eastside???
This video is a miss mash of several places she describes all at once! She speaks of Los Alamos then immediately shows pics of Madrid! Yikes! ( one of many)
I love her valiant efforts at the pronunciation of Spanish names.
Well it's the US, so the pronunciation is English. If people start speaking Spanish then that area will suck. Why do Mexicans have any pride in pronouncing things in Spanish when so few of them can speak English.
@@supersnapp Yes ignorant US citizens who can't learn a second language...while most Europeans and well-educated Muricans speak more than English.
Santa Fe and Taos were not included? I am interested in moving to New Mexico. I will have to visit the Land Of Enchantment one day to see which town or city would be a good to great fit for me.
There are many good places, please note that Santa Fe and Taos are both expensive and high crime areas. Depending on what youare looking for, try Alamogordo, Los Cruces or Las Vegas (NM) for good quality, affordable places.
@@MariclaireNorton Las Cruces is my hometown.
Taos is very small, and both are very expensive. Nice to visit, but good luck buying house.
@@coltonm.1522 Las Cruces New Mexico my hometown is more affordable and Mesilla New Mexico adjoins the city and the Organ Mountains can be seen all over town and El Paso Texas is 40 miles away, so the airport can be used if you live here. The person that made the video has obviously never been to New Mexico. Albuquerque is high crime and the police are corrupt and trigger-happy.
I live in Taos! That should had been on list. Every city she mention were around or outskirts of Albuquerque. A lot of crime!!!!
Not one single person calls that part of Albuquerque by the name Eastside. Nobody. It's just Albuquerque, plus that part of it contains a wonderful feature not mentioned - the war zone. Fun and fentanyl for everyone!
New Mexico is beautiful but to many people who don't respect America 🇺🇸 are moving to New Mexico crime is high and we need to make it red 🍒🌶️🍅❤️🌹🐞🍓⛽🛑🎈🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
#make New Mexico red again ⚓💬🙏🏽
i dont think NM has ever been red. And crime comes from poverty, NM is a poor state and theres alot of theft/ vandalism in poor states whether they're red or blue
Again wow Alamogordo is not mentioned on the worst places to live in NM or the best places to live. Must be a twilight zone, hard to believe since there's an air force base located in Alamogordo, NM
Alamogordo is the “Twilight Zone”.
May I suggest a course on the correct pronunciation of Spanish words?
No mention of the high crime rates.
New Mexico 🇺🇸
Meth capital of the American people 😭
@@debrene1233 You haven’t realized Breaking Bad isn’t a documentary. 🤣
@@hotspur4237
Exactly that's why we must turn it Red
Great Television show
I live in White Rock. NONE of the pictures shown were from White Rock!
Hi, I'm a New Mexico native, as were my parents and grandparents. It is obvious you don't know much about New Mexico. Eastside does not exist. Albuquerque has an east side of the city, and it is close to the mountains, but whatever you're calling Eastside is Albuquerque proper. As for Sandia Heights, Albuquerque proper again. It is not a town, it's a neighborhood in Albuquerque. I've never heard it called Sandia Heights. Rio Rancho is on a sand filled mesa top. The only water up there is on the golf courses. There are no mountain valleys there as you pictured. Not a bad place but not represented well by your video. Corrales, Mesilla, close enough. Los Alamos and White Rock are practically closed communities. You have to work at LANL to live there, for all intents and purposes. Unless you work at Buger King or Walmart. As for schools, our state is ranked last among the 50 states, same with child welfare. There are a very few good public schools. Very few. Private education is not bad.
I love my state, wouldn't live elsewhere, but Albuquerque is violent and crime ridden. Please come visit. Then go home.
The L's in mesilla are silent. Do more research. You offend when you miss pronounce.
What?🤦
The spokesperson evidently is neither Hispanic nor someone from New Mexico. Poor enunciation shows me that someone needs to know the language.
Can someone from NM tell me why Ruidoso is never on these lists. I spent a week there this summer and loved it. It's amazing and has some great history in the area and tons of wildlife. It's a resort town so maybe real estate costs are too high?
Thrown together and haphazard collection of data, smothered with tone-deaf mispronunciation. One of the underpinnings of living in New Mexico is its cultural diversity. Why somebody would throw this video together is a real head-scratcher
You mean Mexicans -- is that what you mean by "cultural diversity?" That is the worst part of New Mexico - you will get your car broken into if you park your car around Mexican areas.
Didn't even mention the best place in NM, thats perfect. keep it that way :)
Besides her struggling to read the names most the spots she said where in Albuquerque
Music is annoying.
Hospital s for any serious problems you go to abq or lubuck tx
Ma-see-ya. HA ha ha! Not ma-sell-ah! Lol!
Like torteeya...😝
“Ber-nah-LEE-lo”😂😂😂
So want to visit here someday!
I just drove across the state. It is breathtakingly beautiful imo. If you like dessert terrain and beautiful mountains.
Balloon Fiesta first ten days of October. Roswell has their UFO Festival is Fourth of July weekend. Also near Roswell is Carlsbad Caverns. Hernandez, (Moonrise over Hernandez) is about one hour and half north of Albuquerque. Easy Rider was filmed in Las Vegas. Lots to see and do in New Mexico. Angel fire, Taos, Pietown, etc.
Check out the Very Large Array down near Magdalena.
How about down town Albuquerque ?
Idk why I clicked on this video but boy I laughed a lot at the pronunciations 😂😂
Only question is can you go to raves in New Mexico
PackAndGo, you really should learn how to pronounce our communities and attractions.
How did she say Sandoval????
Me watching this while I live in nm 🤓🤓
Visit the Unser Racing Museum.
I wonder why is Artesia not in the list.
This should be titled the Best of Albuquerque. I personally like Santa Fe and Las Vegas.
I agree
If New Mexico is good enough for Walter White and his gang, then I'm all in. BTW I was a resident of Farmington for 8 years, the highlight was meeting Johnny Tapia at Fudruckers. RIP Johnny, we'll always miss you.
This video is misleading. It should be re-titled best places to live near Albuquerque.
You forgot Ruidoso.
Video was interesting but the music was too loud and annoyingly repetitious.
Shhhh, don't tell people to move to New Mexico. Look what happened in Nevada, Texas, etc when a metric ton of Californians moved there. They drove up the real estate prices to high hell.
Do not forget what these Californians did to Denver, and Salt Lake City. They are doing the same thing to Southern Utah, the St. George area. These Californians are trying to do the same thing that they are escaping from (LOL).
It is torture listening to computer generated narration. I’ll save you the torment. The list is Eastside, Rio Rancho, Mesilla, Corrales, Sandia Heights, White Rock, Los Alamos.
Perfect
Ty
It’s ok, no need to correct her. How can mispronunciation offend you exactly???
East Side? never heard the heights called that. Has this person ever been here? Its like calling 1/2 of toen the North Valley. When the true North Valley starts just north of Montano and ends close to Corrales. Anything south of Montano is considered Albuquerque Metro. Its the same with the South Valley. If you live in city limits you dont live in the North or South Valley's.
This was terrible for ALL the reasons people mentioned below. LOL Where was Ruidoso, Alamogordo, Las Vegas, Santa Fe, and many, many others?
Not sure what is more disappointing: 1) Mispronunciation of many words 2) Absolute lack of any video showing the highlights discussed in the dialog....or 3) The annoying robot voice. Bummer....because there is a lot of great areas in New Mexico.
Nice video but the spanish is terrible!!
I am so sorry for the haters 😭 below but whatever you say I still want to live here! I Saw what happened at the Albuquerque Walmart shooting. I still say I would rather live here than NYC! Cuomo has driven out small businesses here. In NM I could probably get more for my $$$$$ down here than new York state. I still want to teach here! ✌️🤔👏🌷💕💋💝🕊️🙏 Peace ❗
no haters just speaking the truth
Sorry but 2 things I tool away from this video
1. She needs to learn how to pronounce these places. So easy to say & she butchered it.
2. Some of these places are considered the worst places in NM for highest crime rates in NM & for being over the national average, high unemployment rates, & price of living.
3. God she butchered the names so bad🤕
This individual is definitely not a native.
Obviously this was paid for advertising by realtors. The most expensive areas are what they focus on.
when she was trying to pronounce some of the attractions for rio rancho i could easily tell this is a white girl who pronounces tortilla as (tor-til-uh)
Bernalillo is pronounced Burn uh lee oh.... If you are going to share the information, you should really learn how to correctly pronounce them....
I love when people that have no idea how to pronounce Spanish words try and miss really bad.
double Ls are silent
I never comment on on videos but I have to weigh in. I’ve lived here 20 years. At first I thought this video made as a joke. The video doesn’t match the narration. There is no East Side in ABQ. The pronunciations of cities aren’t even close. It’s obvious whoever put this together has NEVER been west of the Mississippi.
Yes there is an East Side of Albuquerque get it straight! Lived in New Mexico all my life!
Don’t waste your time watching this or the “worst cities”.
No water in rio rancho not good
LOL - the narration was done by a robot voice synthesizer, not an actual human. It’s also weird that this was put together by someone who has never been to New Mexico - where did they get their information? Even Wikipedia is better than this by far.
The accents are not accurate...
La Mesilla... It is pronounced Muh see uh.... not muh sill uh...
Boy she should have at least tried to learn how to say the names of the cites.
You need some help with pronouncing the Spanish influenced names.
And sant fe whats goin on???
The town she calls East Side is actually Albuquerque ranked one of the worst places to live in New Mexico!
Your narrator doesn't know how to pronounce some if these towns!!
Could you learn the correct pronunciation of those towns!!!!
Let's face it. You don't know anything about New Mexico. You just did a couple Google searches, borrowed some stock video footage, and slapped together a video. If you're really interested in learning about New Mexico, ignore this video. Let me start by saying I live near Albuquerque, NM. I've lived here for over 26 years. So I know what I'm talking about because you're talking about my home. Eastside is not a town. It's just the east side of Albuquerque. That section of Albuquerque also includes some of the highest crime areas in the city. Rio Rancho is not a suburb, it's an actual city. The petroglyphs are in Albuquerque, not Rio Rancho. I used to live about a mile down the road from the petroglyphs. Corrales is surrounded by Albuquerque and Rio Rancho. 90% of the pictures you've shown are not for the community you were talking about at the time. Buying a home in most of the areas you've mentioned may seem affordable to someone who doesn't know New Mexico. The fact is, finding a job that will allow you to afford one of those homes is difficult at best. For example, White Rock is great but your only real employment opportunity that pays enough to afford a home there, is Los Alamos National Labs. Same goes for the town of Los Alamos itself. You also overlooked the largest National Lab in the country, Sandia National Labs located in Albuquerque. Sandia Labs employs over 12,000 people. So it's a pretty significant employer in Albuquerque.
Now lets talk about how badly you butchered the names of so many places. I'm white and your pronunciation of Hispanic words is causing me absolute fits. Probably helps that so many of my in-laws and friends are Hispanic. If you come to New Mexico there's a good chance that if a word looks "funny" to you, you don't know how to say it properly so just ask. We'll be happy to help you out.
Warning to people from out-of -state: We have the best Chile in the world but our definition of "hot" food and yours may differ quite a bit. Ask for a sample before you go all out ordering something with chile on it. If you really think you can handle the heat, ask a local where to go to get good chile and not the weak stuff we feed to tourists.
I appreciate the positive narrative, but this lady doesn't know crap!
Learn the words
You would think the "narrator" would learn how to pronounce the cities correctly. It was embarrassing to listen to the gringa.
Mesilla…please pronounce, “Meh-SEE-yah”….narration should require a native speaker….(sigh)
Everytime she said it's a "progressive" town I realized this is a really good list of places not to live.
Me-sill-a?????
No mention of the horrifying crime and poverty statistics. If this is an example of the infornation on your channel, I wont be watching any others.
Jeez...like other comments, if you are going to do a video like this, please learn how to pronounce the names of the places you are talking about. It really discredits the information you are providing. #NativeNewMexican
Eastside of Albuquerque does NOT have good public schools!
Is this a parody?
Ok who paid for this false info of Abq. 😂😂😂
She’s never been here. Don’t move here if you don’t have to. People here are moving out.
Sounds good, more space for me
Ive lived in the Albuquerque are for 17 years and never heard of a town called EastSide, unless you just mean the east side of Albuquerque or the East Mountains which is a collection of towns in the mountains firming the city's eastern boundary. You need to work on your research and learning a little about your subject before you present. Lousy Video. Its pronounced Ma-see-ya. Its Spanish. I never want to see more videos like this. I prefer accurate information.
No NFL team, no NBA team, no Hockey team, no National College teams...no major universities and no MLB team.
Major colleges and universities, but small.
WHAT ABOUT UNM AND THE LOBOS??? I think it is great, even with the crime. It's a beautiful state. Prices are MUCH lower than CA. True, she is misguided and needs to visit the area to learn pronunciation, the prices are off on real estate, most roads are NOT PAVED, but we have 'Hernandez' and 'Trinity'.
@@donovanfoto3263 University of Nothing Much? To big, I much prefer Tech. I mean, you can't go wrong with a school that owns its own explosive test range.
@@Krieghandt I work on the mountain at NMT, but there’s a reason Socorro didn’t make the list. I commute from Los Lunas.
@@DaveGme I love Socorro for many reasons most ppl don't. Which means I don't have to share :) I like Los Lunas as well. Great town the exact distance needed from ALBQ.
It's pronounced MeseYa. That's how you pronounce Mesilla. If you're going to say Spanish words in your videos, please learn how to pronounce them.
The Kimo Theater in Albuquerque shown is known to be haunted. 👻👻
The east side is not a city it’s all part of Albuquerque it’s all the same not a good place to live to much crime !
Ruidoso usually makes these lists but apparently she has a "Progressive" bias. 🤦
Taos also
DITTO!!!! LEARN TO PRONOUNCE THE NAMES OF THE SITES YOUR MENTIONING IN YOUR VIDEO...ITS INSULTING...THIS IS OUR CULTURE AND HERITAGE...ITS NOT JUST ABOUT MAKING MONEY FOR YOU!!!
I can't say Hispanic/Native Words..LoL😂
