New Website

The City of Las Cruces is pleased to announce the launch of its new user-friendly website which was designed with video and local photography to show off the beauty of the community.

This new and improved website was created with the user experience in mind and ease of finding what you are looking for. Visit https://LasCruces.Gov/ to experience a modern layout and intuitive navigation.

The new website also has enhanced ADA compliance features. An accessibility widget which appears as either a blue or white icon in the form of a human with outstretched arms on the side of your screen or mobile device will allow, for example, those who experience seizures to adjust their screen to have less flashing and reduces bright colors. Another feature assists those with ADHD to have a more focused view and helps them cut down on the distractions on the page they are viewing.

Being a municipality close to the border, City administration and staff understand the importance of communicating across a multitude of languages. We want everyone to have access to the information the City provides including programs and services, and transparency and accountability.

If you are searching for a job with the City of Las Cruces or are planning to pay your utility bill, please check out the rest of website and learn about some of the programs being offered to the community.

Residents are encouraged to visit the new website at https://Lascruces.Gov/ to explore its features. The City looks forward to improving the customer experience.
