La Cueva Oeste in Albuquerque, NM

La Cueva Oeste is a small single-family subdivision in the far Northeast Heights of Albuquerque, inside the 87113 ZIP within reach of the Wyoming Boulevard and Paseo del Norte crossroads. The La Cueva Oeste Homeowners' Association, a registered New Mexico nonprofit, governs it and has spoken for the neighborhood in city planning work, including the master plan for North Domingo Baca Park. Houses went up in the late-1990s wave of building that filled this end of the city, and the streets fall in the La Cueva High School attendance area.

The homeowners' association is the neighborhood's formal voice with the city. Albuquerque's District 4 roster of registered neighborhood associations lists La Cueva Village and West La Cueva, but nothing filed under the La Cueva Oeste name, so the HOA carries that role here.

Errands run to La Cueva Town Center at Wyoming and Paseo del Norte. Desert Ridge Middle School and Edmund G. Ross Elementary complete the school path.
