Corrales NM

Corrales is a small village of 8000 surrounded by Albuquerque and Rio Rancho. The place consists of 100+ year old historical buildings and houses, mansions, and trailers, art galleries and the Bosque/ river. Most people assume that Corrales is all rich people, and they are mostly correct, especially nowadays. Houses are extremely expensive and the 30% of people there who aren’t rich likely have houses that were bought before the year 2000. There are barely any young families, most people there are retired or use their corrales house as a summer home. There are only 4 ways in and out of corrales and cops will pull you over for going 1 mile over the speed limit. Corrales has changed over the years from Spanish village, to artistic community, to wealthy liberal community, to basically just wealthy. A trailer or old house gets razed almost every month to put a mansion in.
