A vibrant community with quick access to Downtown Albuquerque

Suburban University Walkable Shopping

Nob Hill combines the vibrant life of modern Albuquerque with the historic charm of old Route 66. Located along Central Avenue, Nob Hill is close to the University of New Mexico, Presbyterian Hospital, and Downtown Albuquerque for an easy commute to some of the city's biggest employers.

Some of Albuquerque's most popular shops and restaurants are located in this neighborhood, including local favorite Kellys Brew Pub. Visit Zacatecas for some authentic Mexican food and tequila, then walk down Central Avenue to window-shop at stores selling everything from vintage clothing to comic books. Pick up supplies at La Montanita Co-op, one of Albuquerque's oldest organic groceries.

Nob Hill homes for rent are as varied as its residents, ranging from upscale lofts to charming antique bungalows. Residents can enjoy numerous parks and bike-friendly roads through the area, and the Sandia Mountains are just 20 minutes away by car.

Its pretty lit down in Nob Hill area. Plenty of restaurants and diners to choose from, as well as moderate shopping opportunities. It's a great place to spend time with friends at any hour.

I would love to live here again, maybe even with my own family. It is incredibly safe and the people who live around us are the sweetest and most caring people I have ever had the pleasure of meeting.
