River’s Edge enjoys a convenient spot by the Rio Grande River
In River’s Edge, modern homes stand on the cusp of a couple of New Mexico’s natural wonders. Located beside the Rio Grande River and in sight of the Sandia Mountains, this Rio Rancho neighborhood combines access to outdoor attractions with commercial convenience. Residents are minutes from trails, water access, restaurants and shopping. “Probably one of the biggest draws is the views of the mountains from some of the homes,” says Audra Dodson, a local Realtor with Kellogg Agency Sales, who has eight years of industry experience. “Some of the homes back up to the [Rio Rancho Bosque Preserve], which has a walking trail that abuts the Rio Grande River." The neighborhood also has easy highway access, which Dodson says is a plus for anyone wanting to live in Rio Rancho but who works in Santa Fe.
River's Edge offers may great amenities for its families.

Rio Rancho schools are one of the draws to the area
The Rio Rancho Public Schools system is a big reason some people want to live in this city just outside Albuquerque. The district maintains an A grade on Niche. Dodson credits student-centered teaching and consistency among district leadership. “We don’t have a high turnover in the administration,” Dodson says. Students in River’s Edge may attend either Sandia Vista or Enchanted Hills for kindergarten through fifth grade, based on where they live. Both schools have A-minus grades. The A-rated Mountain View and Rio Rancho middle schools offer their own sports teams, from football to track. V. Sue Cleveland High carries an A-minus grade and has dedicated classes on topics including robotics and law enforcement. A northern section of River's Edge, including Estancias at Santiago, Bosque Encantado and Bosque del Rio Grande, falls within the C-rated Bernalillo Public Schools system. W.D. Carroll Elementary carries a B grade and includes kindergarten through third grade, while the C-rated Bernalillo Elementary covers grades 4 through 6. Both elementaries have dual language programs in Spanish and English. Spartan Learning Academy gets a C-minus grade and offers extracurricular opportunities including boys and girls basketball teams. The C-plus-rated Bernalillo High has a dedicated medical sciences program.

River’s Edge residents are about 6 miles from Interstate 25, which directly connects to Santa Fe, New Mexico’s capital, 50 miles away.

Playgrounds and hiking are within quick reach
Many in the area are close enough to walk to Rio Vista Park, a 3-acre green space within River’s Edge II. Rio Vista features a playground, a dog park and a skate park. The 3-acre Trailhead Park has a playground and is accessible via the North Beach Bosque and Bosque trails behind the homes in River’s Edge I. The Rio Rancho Bosque Preserve unfurls between Rio Vista and Trailhead parks. It features trails that take visitors to areas by the Rio Grande River, including Trailhead Beach and Siphon Beach. “There are a lot of cyclists along there, just because the trail does go for quite a few miles,” Dodson says.
Rio Vista Park is a large park and one of the few in the River's Edge area.
