Health care is the largest employing sector at 59,271 jobs, with 8 hospitals and medical offices across Bernalillo and Sandoval counties. Professional, scientific, and technical services ranks in the top four, with engineering and research offices that often have controlled-access areas. Hospitality and retail fill out much of the rest, from hotels near Old Town to shopping centers in Rio Rancho. High-desert dust and wind push grit into entries and vents, and crews dust high surfaces and care for floors more often than in wetter climates. The metro spans four counties, reaching into Valencia and Torrance, and outlying sites need planned routes. Population has held close to flat at 925,279, and most work is in established buildings. Local janitors earn a median of $15.81 an hour. Schedule a free facility assessment for your building.
