Home > Retirement

Retirement is truly a celebration- a time to look forward to a new beginning. You have spent your life working, raising your families and putting others first to reach this point in life. It is now time for your self. Jones Construction redefines retirement living by providing an environment where you can continue to learn and grow, to flourish and be fulfilled, feel secure, and enjoy your retirement years.

In addition to having low property taxes, New Mexico taxpayers 65 and older may exempt up to $8,000 (single filer) or $16,000 (married, filing jointly) from any income source if the income is under $28,500 (single filers) or $51,000 (filing jointly). If you're 100 or older, you pay no income tax whatsoever.

Lifestyle perks

Thanks in part to the facilities of New Mexico State University and the growing retiree population, Las Cruces has plenty of outdoor fitness options, including four golf courses. The mountains offer great hiking and camping, too!

Great escapes

The gypsum hills of the White Sands National Monument are only 40 miles away. Santa Fe, with its many cultural events and festivals, is a four-hour drive north on the I-25. The southern-most ski resort in the United States, Ski Apache, is only 2.5 hours away.

Residents love

Watching the sun set over the Organ Mountains. There are oranges, blues, purples, greens, sometimes in the winter there's a dusting of snow, it's always breathtaking.
