What are the pros and cons of living in Santa fe,New mexico?|154873

What are the pros and cons of living in New mexico in general?
Do you know any good places?
Hows the weather?
Im looking for a place thats mostly warm and has nature near it.I also do not wish to live in a big city.
Thank you

Also what about the the weather,natural disasters,things to worry about,the types of animals/creatures/bugs.

I have lived there:

Cons:
1. Housing and cost of living is extremely expensive!
2. Job market is very limited - mostly service related jobs
3. Winters are cold but not really that bad
4. Closest airport of any consequence in Albuquerque. Santa Fe does have an airport and has some commuter type service.

Pros:
1. Beautiful old city (oldest state capitol in the US)
2. Vibrant arts/cultural community
3. Excellent skiing very close (Santa Fe, Taos, etc.)
4. If you are an artist it is an excellent place to work
5. Excellent all around outdoor activities close
6. Has an excellent rail system to and from Albuquerque/Belen/Los Lunas
7. No natural disasters to speak of (Tornadoes, etc.)
8. Has 4 distinct seasons. Summers are not too hot and it is a very dry climate (no humidity)

That just about sums it up.

winters are fairly cold, its in the middle of nowhere, havent been there but ofviously its beautiful

cost of living is high but not in albekurkie

What train do I take from Yankee Stadium to go to World Trade Center and other places of interest?|141518

I will be in New York next week . Never been before and would love to see some of the sites.
I am going to a Yankee Game. How do I get from the stadium to the World Trade Center?
What about Central Park? The Empire State Building?

The B, D and 4 trains run from Yankee Stadium down into Manhattan, right through the middle of it. In particular, the B or D train will stop at 86th, 79th and 72nd St right next to Central Park, and at 34th St. right next to the Empire State. You will then want to switch to the A, C, E or 1, 2, 3, or N/R trains to go down to the WTC. Here_s a great Web guide to NYC that is well written and organized and will tell you how to find out anything about NYC

My friend, from Yankee Stadium, you can take the Manhattan-bound (southbound) _B_ or _D_ trains (Orange Line) to 59th Street. Once there you can transfer to the downtown (southbound) _A_ or _C_ trains (Blue Line) to the Chambers Street-WTC.

To go to the Empire State Building from WTC site, take the uptown (northbound) _A_, _C_ or _E_ trains (Blue Line) from Chambers Street-WTC to West 4th Street. At West 4th Street, transfer downstairs to the _B_, _D_, _F_ or _V_ trains (Orange Line). Take the uptown (northbound) train from West 4th Street to 34th Street.

When you exit the subway at 34th Street, walk east 1 block from the subway station to 5th Avenue and 34th Street.

From the Empire State Building to Central Park, well are several ways to get there by subway.

Option 1: take the Queens-bound (northbound) _F_ train (Orange Line Local) from 34th Street to 57th Street. When you get there, exit the subway and walk 2 blocks north along 6th Avenue to 59th Street.

Option 2: take the Queens-bound (northbound) _N_, _R_ or _W_ trains (Yellow Line) or the 57th Street-bound (northbound) _Q_ train (Yellow Line) from 34th Street to 57th Street. When you get there, exit the subway and walk 2 blocks north along Broadway to 59th Street.

Option 3: take the Queens-bound (northbound) _N_, _R_ or _W_ train from 34th Street to 5th Avenue.

Option 4: take the Bronx-bound (northbound) _B_ or _D_ train (Orange Line) from 34th Street to 59th Street - Columbus Circle.

or

Option 5: take the Bronx-bound (northbound) _B_ train (Orange Line) from 34th Street to any stop on the _B_ line from 59th Street to 110th Street. The _B_ train makes local stops from 59th Street to 125th Street.
