"Originally named Hot Springs, the town changed its name to Truth or Consequences (“T or C”) in 1959 after a popular quiz show. T or C is a charming spa town along the Rio Grande River. While the Sierra Vista Hospital may not have as many amenities as hospitals in larger cities, its proximity to several hot springs provides residents with numerous relaxation and therapeutic benefits. Healthy aging seniors flock to T or C for its relaxed atmosphere, hot springs, and eclectic community of artists and retirees. The town hosts events and festivals annually, including the Truth or Consequences Fiesta, which has been held annually since 1950, celebrating its heritage and culture with a parade, rodeo, and music."
