Tularosa
Village of Tularosa Chamber Site … Tularosa, New Mexico, in Otero County, is 66 miles NE of Las Cruces, New Mexico and 95 miles N of El Paso, Texas. There are 2,858 residents in the village (2000 census) . The village is located at 4500 feet at the base of the Sacramento Mountains.
Tularosa, New Mexico History … Tularosa gets its name from the Spanish description for the red or rose colored reeds growing along the banks of the Rio Tularosa. The Rio Tularosa, which still exists along the north side of the village, attracted the original settlers as a water source in the desert. Settlers attempted to establish a settlement in 1860 but were unsuccessful. Two years later, Hispanic farmers from the Rio Grande valley succeeded in settling the area. In 1863, the Village of Tularosa was formally established and was mapped with forty-nine blocks and water rights distributed and recorded.
Roswell
Roswell Chamber of Commerce … Like most of the small cities in New Mexico, Roswell has encountered many challenges over the past 125 years. Billy the Kid, the Lincoln county War, and raids on the Chisum Ranch by the Mescalero Apaches in the 1880s colored our early history. The alien invasion of 1947, the closing of Walker Air Force Base in the early 1970s, and the influx of the big box stores in the 1980s have also played a large part in our more recent economic past.
