Part of the expansive Albuquerque metropolitan area, it is the third-largest city in New Mexico, and one of the most rapidly growing. Rio Rancho had a population of 104,046 at the 2020 census.

There were large ranches also in neighboring Corrales. Since the late 20th century, it has developed as a suburb of Albuquerque.
