La Cienega means “the swamp” in Spanish, but don’t be fooled by that name. It’s a historic area that was an important stop on the El Camino Real, the royal road from Santa Fe to Mexico City. With larger lots that are dotted with juniper and pinon, La Cienega is a beautiful place to own a home. Homes on lower elevations are lush with mature cottonwoods.
This rapidly growing area with plans for expansion extending into the 2050’s is largely made up of rolling hills dotted with pinon and juniper. Most of the communities located here have extraordinary views of the Jemez, the Sangres and the Sandias.
