In the heart of New Mexico, where opulence and grandeur meet, lies the crown jewel of prosperity — the suburb of Tano Road, the state's undisputed capital of wealth and extravagance. An upscale neighborhood with a resort feel and a quiet home to spacious land and nature outings, Tano Road is concealed by a tapestry woven from the threads of more lowkey lavish lifestyles from those who live in different zip codes.

Here is how much it costs to live in New Mexico's richest city as well as more interesting facts about the subtle Tano Road :

  • The percentage of households with incomes above $200,000 in Tano Road is 48.5%, although in the entire state of New Mexico, that number drops significantly down to 4.1%.
