NEC Unser Blvd & Westside Blvd · Land For Sale · 11.99 AC

Positioned at the northeast corner of Unser and Westside Boulevards, this ±11.99-acre site offers a rare opportunity to acquire high-visibility pad sites in one of Rio Rancho’s most dynamic trade corridors. Zoned C-1 and available for sale, the property is surrounded by a robust mix of national retailers, medical institutions, and residential growth. With frontage on two major thoroughfares and traffic counts exceeding 35,000 CPD, the site is primed for retail, medical, or service-oriented development.
The conceptual site plan includes multiple pad configurations, including an anchor interior pad ranging from ±4 to ±6 acres. Drive-thru uses are permissible, and access points are currently under city review. Delivery of rough-graded pads is anticipated in 2026, offering developers a clear timeline for activation.
Rio Rancho is New Mexico’s fastest-growing city, with a population of 114,160 and a median household income of $110,047. The area is experiencing significant retail leakage—estimated at $400 million annually into Albuquerque—creating a compelling case for new retail entrants. Intel’s $3.5 billion expansion and Presbyterian Rust Medical Center’s planned 1.2 million SF buildout further underscore the city’s economic momentum.
This site is ideal for developers seeking to capitalize on Rio Rancho’s underserved retail landscape, strong demographics, and proximity to major employers and institutions.
