I assume North Elementary for Dewey Lane. All 3 of these streets are in different parts of the city and all 3 are in the older areas and not the newer Northern (Mall) or Southern (Golf Course) Subdivisions. I cant think of any area i wouldn't live in Alamo except the Public Housing area on First Street and Washington Park. I think Alamo averages one murder every other year?? Also lots of Police in that city (watch for speed traps).
As for Flood Zone 3/4 of the city is on a slant as its built right up next along the mountains so runoff can be bad especially when Flash Flooding occurs although rare.....
Hello, Im from Jersey. It looks like Ill be coming to Alamogordo in a couple of months. I just found out that the population is about 40,000. ( Please feel free to correct me if im wrong) Which is making me a little nervous since I enjoy the nightlife on the weekends.Hoping to get some suggestions on places, or nightclubs that are great to hangout at. Thank you in advance for your suggestions...
I don't frequent bars and nite clubs anymore so i can't give you the names but there are nite ckubs in Alamo. There's probably more than the average 40,000 pop city do to the Airforce base there but just be careful and don't drink and drive as the DWI laws are very tough in this state. First offence and the state takes your auto plus fines etc...There's also clubs/bars up in Ruidoso and cloudcroft near by for the tourist types....
O.K. i just pieced it together why he is angry.............
First he mentions about the church group protesting the Gay Bookstore in Alamo (shocked that one exists there) then over to the Santa Fe post he stated he hates Santa Fe because there are no Gay bars (shocked that none exist there).
All i can say is best of luck to him in his endeavors.........
Oh.....an angry gay man. That would explain it I guess.
Wow....i didnt know the thread was going to go in that direction...lol i just wanted to know the hot spots on the weekend. ty everyone for responding...it seems l;ike i have to go outside of town for the weekend though... hopefully when i get there, people will school me on whats what out here...I usually make the best wherever i go. If anything the quote " When in rome, do as the romans do might apply here"...lol..ty again to everyone who answered my thread.
There are a lot worse things things than being 'bored'. I'm good at making my own entertainment (playing musical instruments, amateur astronomy, reading, ham radio, etc.), so I wouldn't get bored easily. Besides, there are a lot of interesting places nearby.
If I move there, I hope I can find a place to play bass and tuba occasionally, though. That's how I make my living here in Ft Worth.
I live in Alamogordo and I know for a fact that Yucca Elementary is the best Elementary school. Bar none, it's no Long Island, NY school but it is the best here. I highly recommend finding a home in that area. You will also be on the newest and best side of Alamo. If you tell me what your looking for (price, size wise) I can tell you some great subdivisions to live in. I own one home here that I just rented out for a three year lease and now I'm going to buy another one. My bit of advice, BUY NOW... Prices keep going up. You would think they would stay low b/c of all the land to build around here. Problem is you can't build thousands of homes b/c there is only so much water to go around. Therefore home prices will keep rising. I bought my first home here for $203,000 one and a half years ago and now it's already worth over $220K. But you won't see that equity unless you buy in the Yucca school district. Trust me, the only other place I might consider is Cottonwood Height, just b/c it's a pretty nice subdivision, but the school isn't great..
