New Mexico: Blend of old pueblos and modern life
A compact overview notes New Mexico mixes historic Spanish villages and Indian pueblos with malls and airports. It covers a population around one million, vast reservations led by the Navajo, mining as a key income, potash and uranium production, cattle and sheep ranching, irrigation of crops like cotton and pecans, and tourism driven by climate and sites such as Carlsbad Caverns. The state hosts rocket and nuclear research, diverse geography, and the site of the first atomic bomb test.
