Las Cruces is located in Dona Ana County

Located in the fertile Mesilla Valley and adjacent to both the Organ Mountains and wandering Rio Grande, the city of Las Cruces is a scenic gem and an area of incredible commerical potential. In fact, Las Cruces is one of the fastest growing communities in the country. New Mexico State University is located here and current research focused mainly on agriculture, technology and education have allowed Las Cruces to expand its economy.

While the university adds to the cultural diversity of the city, Las Cruces is itself a melting pot of Hispanic, Indian and Anglo cultures which blend together seamlessly. Traditional architecture, spicy cuisine and authentic artwork express the rich heritage of this area.

Numerous museums, art galleries and theaters, in addition to annual events, such as parades and festivals, insure something for everyone. Year-round recreational activities are also plentiful, and nearby state forests and national parks provide wonderful photography opportunities.
