CHEYENNE (WNE) — Nearly two-thirds of the 31 large cities and towns (over 2,000 people) in Wyoming added residents between July 1, 2022, and July 1, 2023 when the largest city, Cheyenne, added the most residents, according to the U.S. Census Bureau.
These new estimates provide a look at how the population has changed in each of Wyoming’s incorporated communities since the 2020 Census.
For cities and towns with population over 2,000, Mills demonstrated the fastest annual growth (2.1%), followed by Pinedale (1.9%) and Sheridan (1.8%), while Cheyenne (585), Sheridan (338), Casper (236) and Gillette (218) showed the most numerical addition from 2022 to 2023.
Three cities, Rawlins (-138), Wheatland (-66) and Kemmerer (-43) experienced population declines of more than 1%. Rawlins is the only place that lost more than 100 residents during the year.
