MORIARTY, NM<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Moriarty is a friendly little community centrally located on Historic Route 66.  Its inhabitants enjoy the high desert climate of the beautiful Estancia Valley, located in the heart of New Mexico.  Surrounded by the majestic Rocky Mountains that turn a rich lapis at twilight, Moriarty\u2019s sunsets are an artist\u2019s dream.  Roadrunners and rattlesnakes thrive side by side with honest, hard-working, and caring people.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
