Tularosa, the City of Roses, gets its name from the Spanish description for the red or rose colored reeds growing along the banks of the Rio Tularosa. The Rio Tularosa, still exists. It attracted the original settlers as a main water source in the desert. In 1863, the Village of Tularosa was formally established. The native acequia (ditch irrigation system) remains virtually unchanged and continues to provide water for the trees lining the streets, private gardens, and landscaping that give Tularosa its unique character. In 1979, the Tularosa Original Town-site District, consisting of the original forty-nine blocks on 1400 acres including 182 buildings, was declared a historic district and recorded in the National Register of Historic Places. Today, Tularosa thrives with its small businesses and hometown people. Many homes still look and maintain the feel of their past occupants. The Village has strived to keep this historic charm and has succeeded in having new buildings and renovations constructed to mimic the architecture of those homes and buildings built in the past.
