Located in the East Mountain area in Bernalillo County; Cedar Crest extends from north of I-25 all the way to Golden. Named for the Cedars which grow here, this community is in the Albuquerque metro area. Cedar Crest is a great alternative for those who desire to have a little distance from the larger city, but still a sense of being close enough to commute easily.
Most homes are situated on lots ranging in size from half an acre to 10 or 12 acres, and many properties are wooded in pinion, juniper, or even Ponderosa pines. Many properties offer wonderful access to the National Forest for hiking and horse-back-riding. It is rare to find a home in this area for less than $100,000, and property values range up to the half-million dollar mark and above.
Cedar Crest combines a unique blend of multi-culturalism, natural beauty, profound historic attractions, and spectacular climate with four distinct seasons, museums, galleries and shopping to create a distinct and unforgettable experience. From mountain biking and hiking to playing a rousing game of golf on one of our famed golf courses, or perhaps taking a tour of one of the local vineyards or browsing museums and galleries, there is a range of activities to suit any interest. For those interested in the Indian-American culture, fall signals the celebration of the harvest season with special ceremonies, dances in brilliant costumes and sacred rituals.
