What is the main reason for the settlement of Albuquerque and Las cruces in the basin and range province

3 answers

The main reason for the settlement of Albuquerque and Las Cruces in the Basin and Range Province is the presence of water resources. Both cities are located near river valleys, which provided a reliable water source for agricultural activities and human settlement. The Rio Grande River runs through Albuquerque, while the Mesilla Valley near Las Cruces is watered by the Rio Grande as well as the Mesilla and Doña Ana Rivers. The availability of water allowed for the development of agriculture and facilitated the growth of these cities in an otherwise arid region.
