That's some kinda bleak picture taht's being painted of NM.
It's not really THAT bad. Of course, I don't regularly venture more'n about 35 miles from my doorstep so...
FF-- The weather's mild mosta the year. A few days over 100 ("but it's a DRY heat") and, if we're lucky, a few days where we might see enough snow on the ground to make a snowball. At least here in the city. The Sandias (Mountains marking the eastern edge of the city) get snow (though sadly very little this "winter") and can be beautimous to look at.
As for plague and Janta Virus, you gotta pretty much be "in the sticks" to have to worry about that. But I still wouldn't mess with the prarie dogs. Or rabbits. Or mice.
Drunk drivers ARE a problem, but I think that's a problem everywhere.
