A suburb on the outskirts of Las Cruces
Set about 6 miles from Downtown Las Cruces and about 3 miles from the colorful Old Mesilla village, San Pablo sits in a small pocket on the southern outskirts of the city. “It’s a small, older agricultural community filled with Adobe homes,” says Raul Tellez, Realtor with Select Realty. “Timber is grown nearby at the Dixie Ranch Tree Farm off of State Road 28, to give an idea of how open and spacious the surrounding areas are." Despite the somewhat rural location of the neighborhood, folks here enjoy proximity to the Avenida de Mesilla commercial corridor - known locally as Las Cruces' "second downtown area"- and Old Mesilla. The Rio Grande runs to the far west of San Pablo, giving residents access to riverside trails like the La Llorona Multi-Use Path and the Mesilla Valley Bosque State Park. State Road 28 is the main access point, giving residents a simple, straight-shot route to Downtown El Paso in about 42 miles.
