Albuquerque's Climate
Renowned for its year-round, pleasant climate, Albuquerque's low humidity and warm temperatures
make the area enjoyable during any season. Even during the warm summer months, evening can be quite
cool, due to the high-desert climate, and in the higher mountain areas, sweaters or jackets are
often advisable, even during the summer. Albuquerque's elevation ranges from 4,500 in the Rio Grande
Valley to to 6,500 feet in the foothills of the mountains. Sandia Crest is 10,678 feet and provides
a 15,000 square mile view of the valley.
