Top neighborhoods in Albuquerque
Westgate Heights
What it’s like to live in Westgate Heights
Elevated views define Westgate Heights, where Albuquerque's western mesa neighborhood offers spectacular Sandia Mountain panoramas across the Rio Grande Valley. Most rentals feature more generous space than comparable eastside options, while the developing commercial district continues adding amenities reducing trips to more congested areas. Though requiring longer downtown commutes than central neighborhoods, strategic positioning near I-40 creates reasonable travel times despite geographical distance, while significantly more living space and mountain views typically compensate for increased commuting time increasingly accepted as remote work trends reduce daily office requirements transforming housing priorities beyond purely commute-based considerations which previously dominated location decisions.
