Pojoaque Pueblo

Pojoaque Pueblo originally encompassed 13,520 acres, but demographic decline has reduced its holdings to just 25 acres. Located a mile east of the Pojoaque and Tesuque Rivers, the pueblo now has a population of 20. Ongoing litigation for four years with two Mexican settlers over appropriated land has consumed significant time and resources. Presently, the pueblo’s assets include a small number of livestock and farming equipment, reflecting the challenges faced in maintaining their community and land rights.
