You will find Silver City a good place to live if it is a true quality of life that you seek. We have a fine community and wonderful weather (never super cold or super hot. You can thank the high desert for that! ). Silver City also has excellent medical facilities and a four-year university.

I come from New Jersey and have been here for 8+ years. The people are friendly and laid back. The downtown is a wonderful mix of history, art, shopping, eating and outdoor activities.

There are many hiking trails, camping and hunting opportunities.

There is the Mimbres Regional Arts Council that does a fantastic job of bringing in cultural events.

Yes, I think it's a very nice place to live, but it depends on what you're looking for of course. If you want friendly people, clear air, and wide open spaces- this is the place...
