While Albuquerque is not the capital of New Mexico, it is the state’s largest city. It is the 34th largest city in the United States with a population of nearly 520,000 and is the fifth fastest growing city in the United States thanks to a mild climate and business development planning. In fact, multiple plans for expanding master planned communities that are expected to draw more businesses into the local economy are currently in the works. The city is placed near the center of New Mexico, right along the Rio Grande. The climate is very mild during the summers averaging in the mid eighties, but winters are at or below freezing temperatures. 

Albuquerque is the epicenter of what has been termed the “New Mexico Technology Corridor”, an area with a large number of high-tech companies that runs along the Rio Grande.

The office space in Albuquerque market has seen less activity lately as demand decreased in the first quarter of 2008 due to the sluggish national economy. However, vacancy has increased only slightly due to the new construction of 77,000 square feet of Albuquerque office space and the sublease vacancy is around 208,000 square feet. However, with nearly 185,000 square feet of new office space available it is expected that vacancy rates will increase and the amount of subleases will increase as well. Even though the Albuquerque office space market hasn’t been affected by the national recession as much as other cities, Albuquerque has created its own problems as the current supply exceeds demand. Thus, now is a great time to lease Albuquerque office space
