About Edgewood

Originally known as Venus, the Town of Edgewood is one of New Mexico's newest incorporated communities; it has only officially been in existence since 1999. rt 66

As the Town's name implies, Edgewood is located at the edge of the woods in the Sandia Mountain foothills. Edgewood is literally "where the mountains meet the plains" and is located 20 miles east of Albuquerque along Interstate 40. The Town sits at the intersections of I-40, Old US Route 66, and New Mexico State Road 344.

The town encompasses approximately 44 square miles of property located in southern Santa Fe, eastern Bernalillo, and northwestern Torrance Counties. The Town’s commercial district includes a number of service stations, two supermarkets, three pharmacies/drug stores, several restaurants, and a variety of retail, video rental, and professional services operations. A new Walmart Super Center opened in March 2008.

Edgewood provides an exciting environment in which to live, work, or own a business. With a robust economy, rapidly growing regional population, and excellent transportation infrastructure, Edgewood provides convenient access to the Albuquerque market as well as those of Santa Fe, Moriarty, Estancia, and Mountainair.
