Laramie is a university town with a variety of activities for people of all ages. Attitudes are easy going and accepting. People are open, honest, and freindly. There are mulitple local places of historical interest, natural wonders and avenues of adventure.
The Snowy mountain range was my favorite place with gorgous granite scenery, lakes, and seasonal hiking,skiing and snowboarding. The university always had activities going on in arts, sciences, and sports. Native American culture was highlighted as well as exploration and developemnt of the west.

It was a very nice, quiet town. I had a hard time navigating – most of the cities and towns I have traveled to have a very intuitive layout, but not Cheyenne.
Lack of grocery stores close to I-25; it was very difficult to find what my family needed in terms of groceries due to the sparsity of stores.

My experience was not good when I visited Jackson Hole, WY. The town was not welcoming. People were very yuppie, and stuck up. I got a very bad vibe from the entire town.
The only good thing was the horseback riding we did at the Spring Creek Ranch Resort. The food was terrible, we couldn’t even find a restaurant that had normal food. Everything was high class, and over priced.

More on Gillette: Data | Crime | Cost Of Living | Movers
I’ve lived in Gillette since I was 11 years old. Over the past 14 years I have met some of the meanest, most ignorant, intolerable, and back stabbing people I’ve ever met. Nobody here cares for anyone else but themselves, they hardly take care of the snow in town like they should worst drivers I’ve ever seen, the m**h epidemic is absolutely outrageous, everyone I know is on it and cops don’t do anything about dealers, the county 17 arrest page is full of arrests from traffic related incidents. The bullying in the schools, middle in particular, is the worst I’ve ever seen. There’s a very clear line divided between the people who’s parents work in coal or oil and have money and the ones who don’t. The rich kids single out the poor or less well off kids, and torture and alienate them. Worst town I’ve ever lived in, 0/10
Literally has one movie theatre, one kids arcade, and about 15 bars and that’s it for recreation pretty much. Unless you count the stagnant pond they call the fishing lake which has a playground.

Methodology: How do you determine which city is best for singles in Wyoming anyways?
To give you the places in Wyoming which are best for singles to find one another, we used Saturday Night Science to look at a handful of metrics. Of course, we want to measure the type of people who live in each city and make some assumptions about what single people like.
So we researched the internet for a database that contains all that information.
We threw a lot of criteria at this one to get the best, most complete results possible. Using the 2020-2024 American Community Survey Census data produced for the state of Wyoming, we looked at every single city in the state. We paid particular attention to:
- Population density
- % of population that’s male vs. female (closer to a 50-50 ratio is better)
- % of households with kids
- Median age
- Number of unmarried people in each city
We then gave each city a “Singles Score.”
The higher the score, the better the city is for singles to find one another. We also limited our results to cities with over 2,000 people. For Wyoming, that meant a total of 31 cities.
We updated this article for 2026. This is our eleventh time ranking the best cities for singles in Wyoming.
Read on to see why Laramie is the talk of the town while Glenrock is probably a bit on the bland side.
