Many UNM staff, faculty, residents and fellows enjoy outdoor activities, including skiing, hiking, mountain and road biking, camping, indoor and outdoor climbing, and running, all accessible in Albuquerque or within a close drive. New Mexico’s national parks/monuments and wilderness areas offer natural beauty and weekend adventures. World-class fly fishing, whitewater rafting/kayaking, and the Southern Rockies are within easy reach. Temperate winters and summers allow outdoor activities year round.
Our family-friendly work life in an affordable city, allows everyone to enjoy the family activities Albuquerque has to offer. Folks with children visit city parks, the Albuquerque Biopark (zoo, aquarium, and botanic gardens), Explora (children’s museum) and the New Mexico Museum of Natural History and Science. Albuquerque has a great public library system as well. Anyone with school-aged children choose among public, charter, parochial, and private schools for their education. Many other (with or without children) buy houses.
Through UNM, you can access sporting and cultural events including UNM Lobos games and Broadway musicals and shows at Popejoy Hall. Community events include the Albuquerque International Balloon Fiesta, Albuquerque Little Theatre, Ballet Repertory Theatre of New Mexico, Santa Fe Opera, New Mexico United USL Soccer and Albuquerque Isotopes minor league baseball. The art galleries and museums of Santa Fe are a short drive away.
Staff, faculty, residents and fellows also socialize outside of work, including happy hours and outdoor activities.
