2017 Map of Las Vegas

About this map

Las Vegas serves as the focal point of this northern New Mexico landscape, where the urban grid meets the high plains and canyons. The presence of New Mexico Highlands Univ and a dense concentration of burial sites, including Mount Calvary Cem and the Masonic Cem, reflects the town's role as a significant regional center. To the south, the settlement of Romeroville sits near the Gallinas River, while the east is dominated by the Las Vegas National Wildlife Refuge, featuring McAllister Lake and Bentley Lake. The map illustrates a transition from the structured streets of the city to the water-managed lands of the refuge and the rugged breaks of Box Canyon and Abeyta Canyon. Distinctive landforms like The Creston and Puerto del Norte frame the western edge, marking the gateway between the plains and the mountains.
