Hello all! I recently moved here and was wondering if there would be any sort of interest in an anime con here in Carlsbad. The ren faire is pretty popular, and i was just wondering if people would want one? Ive been planning one for a while and just need funds to get it started. i dont want to take out loans for expenses if the event is going to be a flop if you know what i mean. 😅

Hi all. I'm moving to Carlsbad for work and am looking for an October short term rental until I can find an apartment in the city. If anybody has any ideas or could offer any advice, please let me know,

Caverncityrenfest – Official Website

For those who didn't go in previous years or haven't heard about it, check out the website or Facebook page for more details. It's a pretty fun event and thought I should share it here for anybody who hasn't heard about it.

Looking for a gym that doesn’t have a-lot of people? Not into going to a packed gym 😬

I am looking for something for 1 person and 1 cat (he is 100% liter box trained). I have a low income but can afford $400/$500 rent each month. I need to find a place by November. Please let me know if everyone knows any cheap apartments or campers for rent. Thank you.

We need worm so our cannabis beds. Please let me if anyone is in the worm business.

I'm looking at a position at the hospital. What is it's reputation, particularly the imaging department, if you know? Thanks.

Can you openly smoke Mary Jane?

I lost my compound bow while leaving the Walmart parking lot in Carlsbad, NM if you have any info please inbox me. Here is a photo for reference. Thank you!

Hi,

Looking for some food recommendations for our upcoming trip please. Realise the first part of the trip is in Tx so feel free to ignore those, but thought I'd mention them too, just in case you kind folks know of somewhere good.

Day 1 - Breakfast in Fort Davis, Lunch between Balmorhea and Guadalupe Mountain NP, Dinner near Carslbad.

Day 2 - Breakfast near Carlsbad. We are visiting the caves that morning / early afternoon so I think we will get something from the cave cafeteria, but if anyone knows of any good lunch options between Carlsbad and Tucumcari please let me know.

TIA :)

Are there any recommendations for certain neighborhoods to live in or any certain areas to avoid?

we’re doing our 27th episode of cavemen news tomorrow. this week our topic is “monster trucks,” so we’ll talk about monster trucks in general and carlsbad’s specific history with monster trucks. that’s what the show is

Why does it smell like skunk weed every aisle I go down in the store?

How is T-mobile cell service here? Thinking of switching from Att but not if the service not as good! 🙃 Thanks in advance!

I'm moving to Carlsbad next month and would like to get together with a group for garbage cleanup in the arroyos and other areas in need.

I would like to get more involved in protecting NM rivers (including the Pecos) and wild areas.

Does anyone else have interest in getting a group together for such activities?

Anyone know of a cab or ride share services in town? Looking to go out to a bar

Wondering what kind of business we’re in need of here in Carlsbad. Would love if there were more family friendly places to go to.

Hi y'all,

I am currently living in a very LGBT+ unfriendly state (Missouri) and have begun looking for places I might move to. I've mostly been looking at states listed as trans-friendly and cities where the place I work has job openings, and a huge bonus is if the cost of living is around the same.

Carlsbad has all 3- New Mexico from what I've ready is pretty LGBT+ friendly, the company has a position open that I'm qualified for, and cost of living seems to actually be 2 or 3% lower there than where I live.

I wanted to ask locals how viable it would be for me to move there, say. in 3 months to a year?

Some additional stuff is I'm originally from Alabama, I'm very into nerdy stuff (Warhammer, Dungeons and Dragons, etc...), and I'm hoping to make friends around my age wherever I move (I'm 25). I currently make around $42K - $45K a year (depending on store performance bonuses) and have a few hundred dollars in savings.

Staying here for the night on the main street, and never in all my travels have I heard so many noisy pickup trucks in a city. It's like these guys are bragging about how small their cocks are or something, roaring up and down the street, squealing wheels out of parking lots, etc. Not exaggerating how strange this is, I've been to every state except Alaska, thousands of towns, lived on the road for decades. First time in Carlsbad, and love the town, but the loud trucks are a serious shit stain on this community.

That's more than this sub got in at least 3 months.

Any good places to disperse camp nearby? Thanks!

Can anybody tell me the good and bad about the area? What are the good areas to live in? What are your biggest complaints there?

Just looking for ideas on what to do in Carlsbad on my time off. Trying to get out and meet more people as well!
