Methodology
This dataset covers 72 funeral providers across 22 New Mexico cities. Every price comes from the provider itself: its published General Price List (GPL) or its own website. Of the 42 providers with published prices, 23 come from official GPLs. Under the FTC Funeral Rule, every funeral home in the United States must provide an itemized General Price List to anyone who asks — no appointment or purchase required — which makes funeral pricing unusually comparable.
For each provider we recorded the direct cremation price (using a flat direct-cremation figure where published, otherwise a "from" starting price), basic professional services, and immediate burial where published, along with the source and verification date. Funeral prices change and individual families may be quoted differently; these figures are a snapshot for planning and comparison, not a quote. Always request a provider's current price list before deciding.
