Albuquerque, the largest city in New Mexico, is located along the Rio Grande, adjacent to the Sandia Mountains on land settled by Tewa and Tiwa people until the sixteenth century. Spanish, Mexican, and American occupation has resulted in a diverse population with long interwoven histories and cultural exchange. A high desert city, the climate boasts four distinct, but mild seasons. One can participate in a full range of outdoor activities year-round. Albuquerque has active sanctuary city legislation and a robust public art program, just two aspects of the city that contribute to a diverse community and a rich urban landscape.
