S.R. Marmon is a quiet neighborhood near Albuquerque highlights

S.R. Marmon is an established Albuquerque community with strong neighborhood bonds and easy city access. "I've lived all over, and I have always come back here," says Em Ward, the neighborhood association president. "On my street, even though we've had a fair amount of turnover of some houses, some of us have known each other for over 20 years. We talk and visit. We're friendly and help each other if we can." The neighborhood features pocket parks and proximity to a popular municipal golf course. Shopping and dining cluster around the nearby highways. City highlights, including ABQ BioPark and the Coronado Center, are a short drive away.

Established Southwestern-style homes with mountain views

The neighborhood offers mostly single-family homes built in a traditional Southwestern style, with some townhouses also available. The newest homes date to the early 2000s, with a median build year of 1996. “It's a mixture of original owners who have been in their houses for 30 years, and as generations pass and people move out, others buy homes or convert them into rentals,” Ward says. Homes are closely spaced, many featuring gravel front yards that blend with the earth-toned stucco exteriors. Some residences are within easy walking distance of neighborhood churches and parks. Shrubs and mature trees line residential streets, with mountain views rising in the distance. Single-family home prices range from around $160,000 to $440,000, depending on size, build year and condition. Townhouses sell for $225,000 to $300,000.

Nearby public golf course, and parks with walking paths and playgrounds

Neighborhood parks offer places to walk and play. East Atrisco Kimbar Park is relatively central and is undergoing renovations. It now features refreshed lighting, new picnic tables and park benches; playground updates are underway and expected to be completed by 2026. El Rancho Atrisco Park sits on the neighborhood's northern side with another playground, toddler swings and a paved walking path. Nearby Ladera Golf Course offers two tracks with a total of 27 holes, plus an 18-hole disc golf course surrounded by views of the Sandia Mountains and dormant volcanoes. Ouray Dog Park is less than a mile away, with sections for smaller and larger pups, agility training equipment and doggie pools for hot days. ABQ BioPark’s botanic garden, model boat pond, aquarium and zoo are within 6 miles.

Learning Spanish through Albuquerque Public Schools

Students attend Albuquerque Public Schools, a school-choice district. They may begin at Susie R. Marmon Elementary School, which earns a C rating on Niche, before continuing to the C-minus-rated Jimmy Carter Middle School and the C-plus-rated West Mesa High School. Students at West Mesa High can earn a bilingual recognition seal on their diplomas by completing certain milestones, such as a level IV or higher Spanish course and core content classes in both English and Spanish.

Neighborhood association events and city festivals

The neighborhood association publishes a quarterly newsletter and organizes local events. “We do the National Night Out every summer, where we have a picnic potluck in our local park,” Ward says. “Usually, our special neighborhood association events involve a lot of free food. Sometimes they are educational and social, like home security seminars, where we bring in security experts.” Albuquerque also hosts many events, including the nine-day Albuquerque International Balloon Fiesta in October, when hundreds of balloons take to the sky. The festival takes place on the city's northern side, roughly 13 miles away.

The neighborhood is built off a major interchange

S.R. Marmon is located just off the Coronado Freeway, Coors Boulevard Northwest, and a major interchange where the freeway intersects with Highway 45. ABQ Ride stops on Coors Boulevard, just over a mile from the neighborhood. The Coronado Freeway runs east, providing access to downtown Albuquerque in less than 5 miles and Old Town Albuquerque in less than 4 miles. Ladera Drive Northwest spans the community's edges, serving as another primary road.

Lots of big-box chains and a selection of locally owned eateries

The closest restaurants and retailers cluster around Coors Boulevard Northwest, including The Home Depot, Big 5 Sporting Goods, and fast-food options such as Wingstop and Jersey Mike’s. Residents can also support local businesses by dining at Perico's Tacos & Burritos or Sobremesa, a brewpub with a diverse menu that includes Mediterranean dishes, burgers and tacos. Ladera Golf Course’s bar and grill hosts live music on its patio for Thirsty Thursdays in the summer. The nearest grocery stores include the Walmart Supercenter just outside the neighborhood and a Walmart Neighborhood Market about a mile away. La Montañita Food Co-op, located within 4 miles, offers locally produced organic foods. Less than 10 miles away, Coronado Center has over 100 stores, including Macy’s.
