Albuquerque is more walkable than the average New Mexico city. It received a walk score of 43. It has a public transit score of 30. Where it shines is its bike friendliness. It has a bike score of 60, well above the national average of 50.This is aside from the many bike trails in the Sandia Hills.

The abundant outdoor recreational opportunities and service providers make it a great place to live, though it isn’t so popular that it is overloaded with tourists.
