According to local police, Saturday's incident happened after it was apparently blown into power lines by the wind, catching fire.
The pilot and three passengers were pronounced dead at the scene.
The fourth passenger was transported to a nearby hospital where he succumbed to his injuries.
The basket crashed on a street corner in the city's West Side neighborhood near a pharmacy, about 10 km west of the Albuquerque International Sunport Airport.
