Located near the geographic center of New Mexico at the intersection of I-25 and I-40 and resting at the foot of the Sandia Mountains, Albuquerque is the state’s most populous city and one of the most livable in the U.S. The city serves as a major transportation and shipping hub for the Southwest, with BNSF Railway, air cargo from Albuquerque International Airport (Sunport), and a commuter train running from Belen to Santa Fe. Albuquerque is home to the International Balloon Fiesta, the world’s largest gathering of hot-air balloons. A talented workforce, a business-friendly environment, a community rooted in history and a high quality of life make Albuquerque hard to beat.
