How many senior communities are listed on this page?

How do I choose the right senior community in New Mexico?

Start by matching the level of care offered to the resident's current and anticipated needs, then compare licensing status, staff-to-resident ratios, recent inspection results, and pricing. Tour at least two or three communities in New Mexico, talk to current residents and families, and confirm what is included in the base rate versus billed as add-on services.
