Dude, it's Santa Fe. We have 4 movie theaters, they all have websites with prices. 3 of them are on Fandango.

If you opt to not be lazy, you can most likely navigate and "learn something" for yourself. There are even show times on them! Any theater other than JC or the Screen you're going to be paying full price unless you matinee. You may have to "act like" you're buying tickets to find the price but it's really just a matter of laziness not to do this for yourself.

Well, there are plenty of walking biking trails in the city that are open if you want to stay in town. I really like the River Trail/Acequia Trail loop. It ends up being about a 6 mile loop and goes through the railyard where you can get a beer.

As for actual hiking there are a few options. Carson national forest which is north of Santa Fe is open. Carson includes the norther most section of the Pecos Wilderness which has a fair amount of alpine lakes and scenic views. I just did the Trampas Lakes hike yesterday. Carson has tons of options honestly but with a bit more driving required from Santa Fe. Here is something to get you started. BLM Land is also all still open this map shows BLM land in orange, for instance i love running on the BLM land to the west of town.

I have several friends that fit that demographic. It'll be a challenge.

Santa Fe has 80,000 people. (County has an additional 50,000.) There is historical inter-generational poverty and an expanding well-heeled retirement community. But the professional class is small and mostly employed/contracted by the loc/stat/fed government. Commerce is concentrated in a small but vibrant arts/yoga (overlapping with trustafarian) community, tourism, and folks involved in real estate (tied to retirement economy). I've had several young physicians move out after a few years of practice because of lack of opportunities to expand.

So, yes, you can find dates, but I suggest you approach it pro-actively and with an open mind. Join match.com, go to Meetup.com and join clubs, sign up for classes at the Santa Fe Community College, join a gym, go to the Jean Cocteau events, and in case you were looking for a white-collar professional, go outside of that box too. The nice thing about SF is that you can manage a decent life without one of those high-pressured, white-collar jobs (thought you might need to live in the county due to real estate prices). So, you can relax a bit, find that special someone, and then never leave. :)

I second the Cross of the Martyr's. I live within a 5 minute walk of it and have been catching the sunset most nights so far this year. Love it!

Here's a picture of the sunset on New Year's Eve!

There's some beautiful hikes in the area. Also, if you don't mind spending $28, Ojo Caliente(www.ojospa.com) is a really nice way to spend the day/evening. You can do the Kitchen Mesa hike that morning then head to Ojo to soak.. one of my favorite day trips for sure. I would even be up to join you on Monday if you do it then! (I am also a 25 year old female)

Gah! Typo! That should be 505 Cerrillos - in the same building complex as Ohori's is and Talin Market used to be (it should not be hard to find once nearby, what with all the nekkid bicyclists):

Also, it seems it is called the New Mexico Hard Cider Tap*room*.

As a biker I can say with near certain surety that a chainring hitting a rock is not going to start a fire.

But, as a biker I can also tell you that we very often walk past walkers who are smoking. That can start a fire. Some of the wildfires in this country can be traced back to careless smoking. Definitely not all but there are some.

There's a handful of bars open until 2 am, most seem to close ranging from 9 pm to 12 am.

Meow Wolf covers the non-touristy southwest stuff, and also is a good music scene venue.

There are some sporadic galleries downtown that aren't Southwest, from the top of my head Pop Gallery, Keep Contemporary, Ellsworth Gallery, etc.

I'd look into groups on Meetup.com for specific interests and younger-demographic groups. Some are specifically for 20s and 30s.

Is this what you're talking about? I looked at this before, but it seems like the Pecos Wilderness section is less maintained and might not be well marked. That's not a huge issue, though, since I actively track my routes with Alltrails while I'm out there. People in the reviews are saying this is around 18 miles. I'm not sure if I'm prepared enough for a day hike with that much distance and elevation. I could maybe do it on a backpacking trip spending one night out there.

Without leaving town: Arroyo Hondo Open Space Trail

Lake Katherine trail is a significantly longer and more difficult trail than Nambe Lake, but it's worth it in my opinion. Nambe Lake trail is so crowded that one rarely sees much wildlife on it. The last time I hiked to Katherine, I saw lots and lots of wildlife. Including a bear.

I don’t know very much about art styles, but the color palette was purple and black. The painting was of a woman with black hair. It was kind of witchy as an aesthetic. Similar to the Lenore comic books.

I run a healthy pour of this in every tank https://www.amazon.com/Race-Gas-100032-Race-Concentrate-Octane/dp/B015HRK7ZS/ref=asc_df_B015HRK7ZS/. Sucks that it's the best option, but with an FI engine I figured I'd do what I could to mitigate any risk.

Santa fe is not a big nightlife town so no gay bars. But Santa Fe has been gay friendly for decades. Eastern families used to exile their gay offspring out here during the early 20th century where they found acceptance among the artists. I have read this book but it might interest you.

Here are a couple cool hot springs right outside of Taos: https://www.alltrails.com/trail/us/new-mexico/ponce-de-leon-hot-springs?p=24434131

Not Santa Fe - http://www.tripadvisor.com/ShowUserReviews-g47224-d675571-r119876447-Wild_Earth_Llama_Adventures-Taos_Taos_County_New_Mexico.html This was a ton of fun, but that area of the Rio Grande Gorge (Big Arsenic Springs) is gorgeous.
