Homes in the UNM area are either within walking distance or only minutes away from the University of New Mexico campus. On campus you will find plenty of places to read, study or people watch. There are plenty of benches outside including by the duck pond. At the Student Union building you can grab a quick bite to eat or participate in a seminar or one of the many events hosted at the building. To find out current SUB events go to http://sub.unm.edu.
Living near UNM is also a plus for those who want easy access to restaurants, theaters and other area services. There are four museums on UNM's campus as well as a theater.

The area around UNM is well known for its artsy atmosphere and for its aspiring artists. Nob Hill, located east of the university boasts some of the best shopping in the city.

The UNM area is a bustle of people and cars. Those who prefer the excitement of the city will enjoy living in this area. Another feature is the character of the homes.
