Land Near Las Cruces Sells At 500 Per Acre
A. Trujillo sold two acres of land about two miles from Las Cruces for 1000 total, at 500 per acre. The irrigated tract, aided by Elephant Butte dam water, shows high value, but the writer notes water costs differ and Deming land with own irrigation may be cheaper to operate. The piece argues Deming lands could rise to similar value as surrounding Deming as water access remains key.
