Top 100 Best Small Towns
Wyoming is not known for large cities or big population. What a person from Wyoming would call a city, most people would call a small town.
Livability.com examined more than 40 data points per town for more than 12,000 towns with populations between 1,000 and 20,000. From the results of the study, they came up with a list of the Top 100 Best Small Towns in the U.S. They claim those towns allow for the tight-knit communities, key to small-town living, coupled with the amenities you’d expect in larger cities. Three Wyoming towns made the list. They may be small but they have a lot to offer.
No. 13 Jackson Hole
No. 41 Sheridan
No. 52 Cody

Rock Springs
Interestingly enough, in 2010, livability.com ranked Rock Springs 8th on their list of 10 best cites for water activities in the U.S. It looks like Wyoming has it going on all over the state.
