Midway, NM

Midway is a quiet, spread-out rural community located about nine miles southeast of Roswell along U.S. Route 285.

Properties here range from modest single-family houses to spacious farm and ranch parcels, offering plenty of room for horses, workshops, or small homesteads. Local students attend schools in the Roswell Independent School District, and Highway 285 provides a straightforward commute north into Roswell or south toward Artesia. For anyone looking for quiet acreage and starry desert nights while staying within quick reach of town, Midway lives up to its name as a convenient middle ground.
