New Mexico!
We've got the Kid and so much more!
It's a friendly western village where you can take a pleasant stroll

outlaw Billy the Kid. Instead of crime, you'll find the World's
Richest Tombstone Race. And wherever you go you'll be greeted with
a wave and a smile. So whether you're looking for a new location
for your business or just a friendly place to settle down, you'll
find it here in the heart of the Land of Enchantment -- Fort
Sumner, New Mexico.
Fort Sumner is located in eastern New Mexico where several major
historical cattle trails have passed nearby. Today still finds Fort
Sumner's location on a river, major railroad line and is at the
crossroads of US 60/84 and State Highway 20.
While many small towns in the area have disappeared, Fort Sumner
has been able to absorb their service needs and take advantage of
its location, climate and progressive attitude to plan and prepare
infrastructure for growth. Young people and retirees coming to the
area attest to the desirability of lifestyle.
