Singing Arrow has convenient commutes and good views

Located in far southeast Albuquerque, about 11 miles east of downtown, Singing Arrow offers convenient commutes and gorgeous mountain views. Originally established as a colonial outpost for the Spaniards of Ranchos Albuquerque, Singing Arrow is a thriving, primarily residential community. Easy access to Interstate 40 puts major employers like Sandia National Labs and Kirtland AFB just minutes from your door.

A range of home sizes in a market that moves quickly

Properties here vary in size, style and price: Drive through, and you’ll find everything from cozy ranches on sparse fifth-of-an-acre lots to sprawling two-story stucco-and-tile residences with three-car garages and heavy landscaping. Whatever the address, pride of ownership is evident on every tidy block. Most yards comprise desert shrubs and rocks, though some residents boost curb appeal with grass and tall shade trees. Expect to pay in the low $300,000s for a three- to four-bedroom, 1,800-square-foot ranch-style home. If you prefer low-maintenance living, consider a town house. A budget of $235,000 can get you a fully remodeled three-bedroom, 1,100-square-foot unit with a fenced backyard. A caveat: Homebuyers looking in Singing Arrow would be wise to move quickly on an eye-catching listing, as homes here don’t often come on the market.

Standout schools for Singing Arrow's students

Children living in Singing Arrow may attend one of several Albuquerque public schools, including several standouts. GreatSchools highly rates Manzano Mesa Elementary for test scores above the state average. Van Buren Middle offers traditional athletics, after-school clubs, and an eSports team. Older students may attend Manzano High. Its dozens of clubs and extracurricular activities include NJROTC for the military-minded and an outdoor club that promotes hiking and camping. Students may hone their skills in public speaking in the TED club. A competitive athletics program has earned state honors in football and basketball. Parents in Singing Arrow also have their pick of private school options.

Singing Arrow Park and Community Center have fun and education for all ages

Singing Arrow residents have many options for enjoying Albuquerque’s mild, dry climate. A small playground and a covered picnic area draw visitors to Singing Arrow Park. Located on the park’s northwest edge, Singing Arrow Community Center offers recreational and educational programs for all ages. Opened to much fanfare in 2022, it includes game and fitness rooms, classrooms and a computer lab. Activities geared to youth include sports and field trips, while adults can brush up on existing skills and learn new ones in the areas of art, music and languages. The center also hosts the annual Multicultural Arts Festival, showcasing talent in pottery, photography, jewelry making and more.

Central Avenue for groceries, movies, and restaurants

Residents find nearby shopping and dining along Central Avenue. Head to the intersection of Tramway Boulevard and Central Avenue with your grocery list to shop at Smith’s. 4 Hills Village, anchored by Sprouts, includes a movie theater and fast-food eateries. North on Tramway, at Canyon Plaza, stop into Sushi Xuan Asian Grill, a red-hued no-frills eatery where you can choose from an extensive menu of Japanese, Korean and Chinese dishes. Locals rave about the Bento boxes and sushi combos. Also in that strip mall: Canteen Taproom, where you can brave the crowds for your favorite ale and a front-row seat on comedy nights. For more dining and shopping options, jump on Interstate 40 heading northwest to open up the city and beyond.
