Default People Leaving Albuquerque

About 3 years ago, I sold some inherited land there to the National Park Service. A realtor with whom i’d Originally spoken (he was native to the area) told me Albuquerque was headed “in the wrong direction “ that he personally was leaving the area once his mom passed away - too much violence - didn’t want his family there. We’ll see how long this experiment lasts before it quietly expands back to police response. Personally, I think social work programs only work in very limited situations- otherwise it becomes another program to depend on indefinitely. It’s a shame, and many of the SW’ers become disillusioned and burn out quickly.
