Santa Fe's metro blends a majority-Hispanic population with a substantial Anglo professional and retiree influx, producing competitive margins that have tightened noticeably over recent cycles despite the city's reputation as a cultural-liberal enclave.
Across the recorded series it reached a Democratic high of 55.1 points in 2008 and a Republican high of 28.4 points in 1920. Between 2020 and 2024 the metro moved 4.8 points toward the Republican candidate; the 2024 margin was 48.9 points.
A population of 156,105, a 44% non-Hispanic-white share, and a median household income of $79,071 describe the metro. The metro's voting pattern over the last decade is most similar to that of Taos, NM and Santa Cruz-Watsonville, CA.
The metros whose fingerprint — 2000–2024 trajectory, demographics, ancestry, religion — sits closest to this one, and why.
Twin score (0–100) = weighted cosine between tier-standardized fingerprints: presidential margins 2000–2024 with 12-yr trend and elasticity, ACS income, age, education, population and race, top reported ancestries, and religious adherence — chips name the closest-shared dimensions and the widest gap.
