Albuquerque was named number nine out of 250 best cities in America for pizza, according to a list compiled by pizzelo.com, an online pizza oven retailer.

The list was based on the average calculation of a pizzeria Google review per city, as well as an online survey of 1,000 adults based on age, gender and geography.

Albuquerque had an average Google review of 4.55 for its pizza establishments.

The top city for pizzerias was, of course, New York, with an average Google rating of 4.68. Second and third place went to Tulsa, Oklahoma, with a 4.65 rating, and Los Angeles, California, which had a 4.63 rating.

Santa Fe and Las Cruces also made the list. Santa Fe ranked 54th with a rating of 4.5, and Las Cruces was 118th with a 4.46 rating.
