Editor’s Note: Recently, MoneyWise revealed its list of the 40 most frugal and friendly places to retire. In a bid to provide an idea of what housing inventory is available in these cities and towns, we’re taking a look at listings in each of the cities on the list.

Not everyone can spend $1 million or more on a second home, even if it’s with the idea that eventually you’ll retire there. So when MoneyWise’s list of 40 places to retire that are more budget-friendly came out, we were curious — what kind of homes could you find in these towns?

Last week, we looked at the 25th city on the list — Cedar Rapids, Iowa. This week, we look at Las Cruces, New Mexico, and found three great homes — all for less than $175,000.

“With a modest population of about 100,000, Las Cruces offers small-city living at a low price. Cost of living is relatively low, with a median income of $41,000,” MoneyWise said. “New Mexico State University is located here, giving the city a vibrant character and bringing in new restaurants and nightlife venues every year.”

“In Las Cruces, you will experience nice, hot New Mexico weather. For a small city, it also has a robust healthcare system with 18 major healthcare centers.”

And it’s also gorgeous — the Organ Mountains and the Chihuahuan Desert to the east, the Rio Grande and Mesilla Valley to the west, guaranteeing an amazing view no matter where you look.
