Retired in Wyoming in 2009.
From Montana, originally, but worked in California and Colorado previously.
Wyoming is a free state, no state income taxes, some places getting pricy, though. (Jackson Hole is California East.)
Better medical facilities for complicated things in Denver or Billings.
Can be cold in winter, hot in summer. Have great parks: Yellowstone, Tetons, Devil’s Tower.
People mostly friendly—we wave.
Me...survived the Elk Fires that were burning up the Big Horn Mountains.
Yeah, I hear the weather in WY can be brutal, at both ends of the spectrum. I also heard that the amount of snow you get depends on which part of the state you live in. When I was looking for rentals least year I believe it was Sheridan and the surrounding areas that I found things the most affordable, but I could be wrong. It’s been a while.
