Cheyenne, Wyoming real estate
Wyoming's capital and largest city, and one of our relocation markets.
The capital, and the most choice in the state
Cheyenne is a different animal from the rest of my Wyoming, a real capital city with real variety, and yes, I sell here too.
Cheyenne is Wyoming's state capital and its largest city, home to roughly 65,000 people in the state's southeast corner. It carries the widest housing variety in Wyoming, from historic districts to brand-new subdivisions, and a deep job base built on state government, F.E. Warren Air Force Base, the Union Pacific Railroad, and healthcare. It is also home to Cheyenne Frontier Days, one of the country's biggest rodeos.
We work Cheyenne as part of covering the state, and we are honest about what it is: a full city, and a real relocation, about two and a half hours south of Casper. This is home turf for our southern Wyoming agents, Kealey Green and Kiffany McClun, who live and work this market. Here is how we work.
Talk with us about Cheyenne
Moving to or from Cheyenne
Because Cheyenne sits about 178 miles from Casper, most of our Cheyenne clients are relocating: moving down for a job or the base, or moving away and needing to sell here and land there. That is exactly the kind of move we are built for. If you are coming into the area or selling here and leaving, we make sure both ends are covered.
Schools are part of Laramie County School District #1, the largest in Wyoming, with Cheyenne Central, East, and South high schools. Wyoming does not publish sale prices, so we price from the real numbers.
The capital city: Frontier Days, the Capitol, and more
As Wyoming's capital and largest city, Cheyenne has the most to do of any town we serve. Every July it hosts Cheyenne Frontier Days, the outdoor rodeo and festival known as the Daddy of 'em All, which brings big-name concerts, a carnival, pancake breakfasts, and world-class rodeo to town for ten days. The rest of the year, the restored Wyoming State Capitol, the historic Cheyenne Depot and its downtown plaza, the Cheyenne Botanic Gardens, and the Old West Museum give the city real substance.
Outside town, Curt Gowdy State Park and the nearby national forest open up hiking, fishing, and camping, and F.E. Warren Air Force Base anchors a large part of the local economy alongside state government and the railroad. With Denver only about ninety minutes south down Interstate 25, Cheyenne blends small-city living with big-city access.
Setting up utilities in Cheyenne
Cheyenne splits its utilities across a couple of providers, so here is who to call:
- Water and sewer: the Cheyenne Board of Public Utilities, at 2416 Snyder Avenue.
- Trash and recycling: the City of Cheyenne.
- Electricity and natural gas: Black Hills Energy handles both.
- Internet: cable and fiber service is available from several providers across the city.
Providers and phone numbers can change over time, so confirm the current details when you start service. When you buy with us, we hand you the up-to-date contacts so move-in week is one less thing to figure out.
Frequently Asked Questions
How far is Cheyenne from Casper?
About 178 miles south, roughly two and a half hours. It is a different region from Casper, so a Cheyenne move is usually a true relocation rather than a local move.
Can you help me relocate to or from Cheyenne?
Yes, that is one of our specialties. We handle the Wyoming end and coordinate the other end with an agent we trust, so both sides of your move stay in step.
