Climate
Many residents say the climate is so good they could never live anywhere else. With an average of 300 sunny days each year, Santa Fe has four distinct seasons, each enjoyable in its own way.
High in the desert mountains of the southwest Santa Fe boasts low humidity and pleasant warm summer days with refreshingly cool summer nights. Winters are beautiful with snow storms punctuated by sunny days. The colors of fall are bright with blooming chamisa and asters, yellow aspens and sweet, crisp air. In spring, the fruit trees bloom, and daffodils, tulips and forsythia sprout all over town.
With low humidity, it’s always comfortable to walk around town or to hike the trails close by. Average high temperatures go from 44 degrees in January to 86 degrees in July. Lows vary from 15 in January to 54 in June.
