Las Maravillas
Ranch- and Craftsman-style homes
Set along sidewalk-lined cul-de-sacs, homes in Las Maravillas are generally three-bedroom renovated ranch-style built between the 1980s and early-’90s; many sit on up to quarter-acre lots and range from $250,000 to $320,000. Northern subdivisions like Manzano Vista offer newly constructed Craftsman-style homes starting around $370,000; these feature pitched roofs and arched windows, with wide driveways leading to two-car garages. “Most homes here have brick facades and well-manicured front yards,” says David Duerksen, Associate Broker for Simply Real Estate, who grew up in the area. “Folks also tend to live here for a long time.”Los Lunas district schools
Students can attend Los Lunas district schools like Tome Elementary, which earns a C-plus from Niche, then continue to B-minus-rated Valencia Middle. At B-minus-rated Valencia High, students pursuing STEM-related careers can join New Mexico’s Mathematics, Engineering, Science Achievement, Inc. (MESA), where they’ll take part in workshops, go on fieldtrips and enter academic competitions.Neighborhood parks and rocky hiking
Locals can hit the horse trails or ride 4-wheelers close to their homes, and in the neighborhood's southern end, locals can walk the Las Maravillas Nature Trail to Las Maravillas Community Park, which is home to a duck-filled pond and basketball court. About 7 miles north, kids can climb a metal dome, or see how high they can swing at Cypress Estates Park. For a more challenging adventure, locals head to Los Lunas’ Tome Hill Park 3 miles west, where they can hike Tome Hill’s steep, rocky pathways for a 360-degree view of the Rio Grande Valley.Local eatery and thrift stores
Set 6 miles northwest, the Garden Gate Day Spa and Salon and neighboring Green House Bistro offer nourishment for mind and body; locals can get a relaxing massage before enjoying pan-roasted salmon with vegetables, or family-sized portions of chicken. Locally owned thrift stores and retailers like Dollar General sit west along State Routes 314 and 47; shoppers hit up department stores like JCPenney at the Coronado Center shopping mall 33 miles north, then grab groceries at Albertsons 8 miles northwest.Nearby interstate and expressway
Rio Del Oro Loop and the Manzano Expressway provide access to most of Las Maravillas, and residents can travel about 30 miles north to downtown Albuquerque via Interstate 25; rush hour commute times can take up to 45 to an hour. The Presbyterian Hospital and the Albuquerque International Sunport airport are both roughly 28 miles north.Low neighborhood crime score
The neighborhood has a CAP Index Crime Score of 2 out of 10, compared to the national average of 4.

The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
