Does this page show Albuquerque specifically, or the whole county?
Both, and for Albuquerque we have the city-level view: Public Service Co of NM has published outages for Albuquerque under its own name, most recently seen on 2026-09-18. When Albuquerque is affected, you get its own customers-out count and restoration time, with the Bernalillo County county-wide total shown separately as context. Don't add the two together — the county figure already includes Albuquerque.
