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.

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.
