Evansville, Wyoming real estate
Casper's affordable east-side neighbor, with its own school.
Casper's affordable east-side neighbor
People lump Evansville in with Mills because both sit right outside Casper, but they are not the same town, and knowing how they differ is half of doing this job right.
Evansville sits just east of Casper, three or four miles out and part of the Casper metro. It started as a blacksmith's ranch back in 1902, incorporated in 1923, and grew up alongside the area's energy industry. Today it is a small, close-in town with quick access to Casper's jobs and a genuine landmark of its own: the Oregon Trail State Veterans Cemetery.
We sell across Evansville, and we know how it differs from Mills on the other side of town. Here is how we work.
Talk with us about Evansville
Affordable, close in, with its own school
Evansville generally runs as a starter-to-mid market, more affordable than Casper proper, which makes it a practical choice for buyers who want to own close to the city without stretching the budget. It has its own well-regarded elementary school within Natrona County School District #1, with older students attending the district's Casper-area schools.
Because Wyoming does not publish sale prices, treat online estimates for Evansville as just that. We price from the real numbers.
What you get choosing Evansville
Evansville is the east-side counterpart to Mills: affordable, minutes from Casper, with its own small-town identity and school. You trade a bigger-town feel for value and a quick commute, in a community close to the region's energy and industrial job base.

The river, the veterans cemetery, and easy Casper access
Evansville sits on the east bank of the North Platte, so the river and its trails are close at hand for fishing, walking, and floating. The town's most notable landmark is the Oregon Trail State Veterans Cemetery, a quiet, well-kept place of honor on the edge of town. Evansville's own parks and ball fields handle the day-to-day, from summer games to a spot for the kids to run.
Like Mills on the other side of Casper, the real appeal is proximity. Everything the city offers, the hospital, the shopping, downtown Casper, Casper Mountain, and the airport, sits only a few miles west, so Evansville gives you a small-town address with the whole city within a short drive.
