I mostly did a google search for the addresses or GPS coordinates. This site had many of the addresses I was looking for:

I only spent half a day in ABQ but I saw a cool skate park, a historic Old Town area, and the downtown looks nice. I'm sure there's more like desert tours and cultural displays by the indigenous people. There's also a Breaking Bad tour by the local trolley company on Sundays which I didn't go to.

I'd be afraid to live at Walt's house for the fact that everyone must be coming by to take pictures and snoop around.

My brother says an old lady lives at Walt's house. The front lawn is rocks instead of grass because she's too old to maintain it. As I was leaving Walt's house, two other cars passed by and took quick pics. The other locations were pretty empty with not much going on. I'm sure it gets attention but not 24/7. When I ate at Twisters (burrito place setup as Los Pollos Hermanos) the first thing I asked was "Do you serve fried chicken?" The cashiers chuckled and said no but knew exactly what I was talking about.

Yeah there were more places I wanted to go such as Hank's and Gus' houses but I didn't have much time (I wanted to reach Phoenix, AZ in time to sleep). But I did go to Jesse's house and was disappointed. The front of the house looks the same but the side gate entrance/driveway where he used to park the RV was not there. That's where I wanted to take my pics. Found out later the driveway was a set mocked up for the show. Since it's not part of the actual house, I didn't bother taking pics.
