Towns & Other Places in Wyoming

Wyoming was first organized as Wyoming Territory in 1869. The first Territorial Legislature passed a bill granting women of the territory equal political rights. In March, 1870, the first women in the world to serve on a jury were 5 women from Laramie. In September of 1870, Laramie held a public election and the first woman to cast a legal vote in the United States was a resident of Laramie.

Wyoming also has no personal or corporate state income tax.

You can click on the county names on the map above, or use the list below. Each county page has some population statistics and a zoomable/pannable map centered on that county.

NOTE: On many of the pages linked below I try to provide some demographic information. As this information comes from the US Census Bureau, there are a couple of caveats that have to be taken into consideration:

• This information cannot be any more accurate than what the Census Bureau itself offers, and some of the numbers are estimates.
• The "resident racial breakdown" numbers usually don't add up to 100% because Hispanics are often counted among all the other races.
• After the economic meltdown of 2008, the median incomes and median home values are liable to be radically different in 2009.
• The median home values include every type of construction that people live in: townhomes, condos, four-plexes, detached homes, mobile homes, etc.
• The unemployment numbers are a snapshot in time, and most likely have little bearing on what's actually happening in 2009.
