The 5 most violent areas to live in Albuquerque
https://www.abqjournal.com/1046430/the-5-most-violent-areas-to-live-in-albuquerque.htmlThe biggest and most violent of the five clusters identified in the study is referred to simply as Southeast/Primary. The study marked the area as roughly from Carlisle to Eubank and from Lomas to Gibson.
That part of town accounted for 27 percent of the murders, 20 percent of carjackings and 37 percent of nonfatal shootings in the past three years, according to the report.
Other high-crime clusters were roughly: Downtown, from Lomas as far south as Pacific and from Eighth Street to Broadway; Far Southeast, from I-40 south to Horseshoe and from Juan Tabo to Tramway; San Mateo, a triangular area bordered by San Mateo and I-25 and stretching south of Comanche, including the Alta Monte neighborhood; and Southwest, which includes Avalon south to Bridge and Old Coors to new Coors, according to the report.
