Appropriately named, Four Hills is located at the base of the four Sandia Mountain foothills that you see when you look to the southeast. You can see the hills especially well as you drive southbound on tranway Blvd.

Four hills was originally developed in the late 1950's. Homes were built on larger lots with views of the foothills and the city. The neighborhood has a hilly, different feel than many other neighborhoods in Albuquerque. There is a country club with an 18 hole golf course.

Albuquerque is divided into four quadrants: Northeast, Southeast, Northwest, and Southwest . The North and South dividing line is Central Ave, also known as "Old Route 66."  Broadway is the dividing line between East and West, or to native residents, the railroad tracks. Each quadrant has its own unique qualities and distinctive neighborhoods.  Four Hills neighborhood located in the Southeast corner of Albuquerque, is a well established community with  private golf, tennis,  swimming facilities, and two parks for recreation.

The history of the Four Hills dates back to the 1950's.  It was the new location for beautiful custom homes overlooking the city and enjoyed great views and access to the mountains.  One of the neighborhoods most famous attractions was the Western Skies Motel.  The most famous guest was President Kennedy who came in December of 1962 to visit Sandia Laboratories.  The motels history ended in 1988 and is now the home of the present Four Hills Village Shopping Center.   It is still a high end area for real estate commanding prices at twenty to thirty dollars per square foot above the areas surrounding it.
