Sign up for Albuquerque's Emergency Text Alert System

Getting emergency information as fast as possible is the most important step in keeping your family safe.  The county is now offering emergency alerts through txt messages to all residents.  Make sure to sign up today to make sure you are in the know for developing situations.

Bernalillo County and the Emergency Communications Center have created a system to notify residents via phone if there is an emergency situation in their neighborhood. If you have a landline and live in Bernalillo County, you’re already prepared for the notifications to reach. Those with cell phones have to opt-in to get them sent to their devices.


Registering for the emergency notifications is very simple. Go to this website and fill in the required fields to make sure your number is on the emergency list. It’s a good idea for anyone who has a cell phone as their main telephone line. Also consider registering work phones should anything occur while you are on the job during the day.

Typical notifications may include anything from evacuations due to fire or flood or advisements of a dangerous situation in your area. Sometimes if there is a SWAT team working nearby or an environmental hazard, it’s in the best interest for everyone to take shelter and let the professionals do their work. It’s completely based on the address you input with your phone number, so make sure you give the correct, most recent address.
