Tse Bonito, NM

Tse Bonito sits right along the New Mexico-Arizona border, directly adjacent to Window Rock, the government seat of the Navajo Nation. Thanks to its spot on State Highway 264, everyday life here naturally bridges the two states. Many residents commute minutes across the border for tribal government jobs, healthcare, and shopping in Window Rock, while enjoying a quieter community setting on the New Mexico side. For education, local students are part of the Gallup-McKinley County school district, attending campuses in nearby Yah-ta-hey and Gallup. Framed by striking sandstone bluffs and the Puerco River valley, Tse Bonito provides a convenient home base with easy access to both regional amenities and the heart of the Navajo Nation.
