It seems that most websites that discuss the best states for winter snowbirds to go to by-pass New Mexico.
However, there are some places in the state that are suited for snowbirds. RV Life has posted an article on three of the best snowbird destinations. I've been to two of them.

New Mexico’s beautiful natural landscapes, rich cultural heritage, and mild winters makes it snowbird’s paradise. If you’re looking for an RV snowbird destination that lets you enjoy both outdoor activities and peaceful retreats without feeling too hot or too crowded, this southwestern state might be for you.
However, New Mexico hasn’t garnered a lot of attention as a destination for snowbirds. This is largely because its mountainous terrain tends to be cooler than Florida, Texas, or Southern California. With that being said, average daytime temperatures in January (southern New Mexico’s coldest month) hover in the mid 50s in most regions. Although this isn’t T-shirt weather, it’s still mild enough that there’s no need to retreat indoors because it’s too hot to do anything outside. And outside is where it’s at in New Mexico. In winter, you can enjoy a wealth of activities in the Southern region of this state. wealth of outdoor activities that include sight-seeing, hiking, golf, taking in art and culture, and a whole lot more.
By the way, New Mexico’s culture is rooted in its indigenous and Mexican heritages. As a result, the southern part of the state boasts a rich heritage that’s evident in its historical sites and unique art to check out. In addition, the Southern part of New Mexico boasts great restaurant and entertainment options.
