It wasn't all bad, but it certainly hasn't been all good either. HI! officially opened in 2020 which is a positive. 
Here's to 2021; let's hope it receives better than a 1-star review. 

“Extensive new data modeling shows a harsh new reality that millions of Americans are at risk of flooding. Groundbreaking research from First Street Foundation, a non-profit group, highlights that 70% of American homeowners are at risk of flooding that isn’t reflected in current FEMA flood maps. This new data reinforces just how urgent and important it is to get flood coverage in place that homeowners need.”
The link below details First Street Foundations findings for the state of New Mexico.  While having a smaller proportion of properties at risk than compared to elsewhere in the country, substantial risk still exists throughout areas of the state.

It is vital that every New Mexican fill out the 2020 Census. Our responses will determine funding for health care, schools, roads, public safety, small businesses, and agriculture. The Census is a count of every resident living in the United States and determines the federal funding and political representation of every state.
With a full and accurate count, New Mexico is set to receive over $7 billion every year in funding essential services and programs. But we only receive this funding when everyone is counted.
The Census is just 10 questions that takes less than 10 minutes to complete. The 2020 Census can be filled out online at www.my2020census.gov

According to a recent report from Kelly Blue Book the average price of a light vehicle in the United States is now over $37,000 (web URL below).   I believe this price point may mean that many drivers in New Mexico may have gaps in their liability insurance, especially if they want 'whatever the state requires'.   Give me a call or send me a message so that we can review your coverage.
