"Love Where We Live"
​Comments from Youth:

"In my opinion, Santa Fe is great."

I love Santa Fe because I can visit friends and have lots of family here."

"I love Santa Fe because it snows and we don't get snow where we live..
I love to come here and see family and see the mountains and walk around town to see places."

"I love New Mexico because of the Organ Mountains. I love driving around and going to New Mexico State University football games and basketball games. New Mexico is the best!" Nicolas, age 8

" I love New Mexico because there are SO many pretty mountains!" Jocelyn, age 11
