Locals know and now you do, too: The town of Bernalillo, New Mexico, isn't in Bernalillo County; rather it's located in Sandoval County, just north of Albuquerque.
Located less than twenty minutes from Albuquerque, Bernalillo, New Mexico, has a population of just over 8,300 as of the 2010 census. It's the county seat of Sandoval County, and rests on the east bank of the rolling Rio Grande River. The town was founded in 1695 -- that's right, that long ago -- by the Spanish Conquistador De Vargas on the site of the Gonzales/Bernal Camp. The Santuario de San Lorenzo was constructed in 1856, and is the site of the Las Fiestas de San Lorenzo each August, which includes a Matachines ritual dance. See more
Bernalillo apartments with garages are sometimes more expensive than other options. However, they may make more financial sense in the long run.
Weather, break-ins, and daily struggles to find a space can take a toll financially and physically. Remember that even cities in mild climates experience issues like salt air, tornadoes, hail, falling branches from storms, and other issues.
It’s also possible to score an auto insurance reduction if you park in a garage. Ask your insurance provider about any deals or discounts that could trim money off the cost of your monthly bill.
Before signing a lease, ask the landlord or property manager about any restrictions on garage use. It’s important to know if there are enough spaces for tenants and visitors and what happens if the garage is full. If you’re moving into an apartment inside a home, ask about any conditions on its use and if storage is allowed.
