About Alma

Alma is a tiny, quiet community in western New Mexico's Catron County, home to fewer than fifty people. Set against the rugged backdrop of the Gila National Forest, the area is famous for its Old West history, having once hosted Butch Cassidy and his Wild Bunch on local ranches. For anyone considering a move out here, daily life revolves around wide-open mountain landscapes, deep peace and quiet, and a truly remote lifestyle.
