Albuquerque Retirement Communities

Albuquerque is located in the central part of New Mexico and is NM’s largest city. The ABQ area includes the city of Rio Rancho, which is one of the fastest growing cities in the United States. There are plenty of retirement community options from which to choose in this area.

Sunrise Bluffs is a gated, 55-plus, manufactured home community located 30 minutes south of Albuquerque in the city of Belen, New Mexico. Learn more about the city of Belen here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Belen,_New_Mexico

There seems to be a stigma associated with manufactured homes, but in most cases these days they are just as nice and just as safe as site built homes and are a less expensive alternative.

Homes for the 240 planned lots here range in size from 1,300 to 2,400 square feet, and there are several floorplans to choose from.

One great feature that is very hard to find these, especially in this price range, is the ability to store an RV on your property. 14 lots in the community’s third phase are approved for RV ports next to your home. There is also an RV storage yard in the community.

Monthly maintenance fees are currently just $75, and according to the Sunrise Bluffs website there have not been any increases of this fee since 2001.

The community also has a clubhouse with a covered swimming pool, exercise room, billiards room, library, full kitchen and more. Check out the community newsletter to get an idea of the types of activities going on in Sunrise Bluffs.
