Welcome to Monterey ...So far, we found very little information about Monterey. The little that we've found leads us believe that the community is historic.<1> We've added Monterey to our Gazetteer with the hope that we can develop more information. We would especially like to find the location of Monterey - knowing its coordinates, we can explore things like its relationship to neighboring communities, nearby cemeteries, etc. If you can help us with Monterey, please Contact Us. While we don't have the exact location of Monterey , we believe that it would have been located within present day Otero County<2>. While we don't have a date for the founding of Monterey, you might consider that their post office opened in 1909. When the people of Monterey referred to themselves (known as a demonym), they are believed to have used Montereyan<3> Time Zone: The area where Monterey was located is in the Mountain Time Zone (MST/MDT) and observes daylight saving time If Monterey still existed, it would have been in the (575) area code.

When we find such a community, we add it to our Gazetteer with the hope of adding more information in the future. The earliest source we've referenced which mentioned Monterey was in the document titled List of Post Offices from Cameron Blevins and Richard Helbock.<4> For more details, see References and Mentions for Monterey.
