Casper Reviews

Casper is in Wyoming. This means it is windy, cold, and lonely. With suicide rates higher than any other state excluding Alaska, the minimal crime-rates pale in comparison and seem to be non-existent. For those interested in the outdoors, fly fishing, and hiking this community is wonderful. For those looking for diversity, opportunity, or a stable economy, it is time to look away. Cost of living is slowly rising but the commute is always 'short' considering the size of the town.
The only good thing about this town, our scenery. But it's sooo windy. Which has been causing health problems for us. The people are extremely rude. There is NOTHING to do here. We can't wait to leave!
Casper is a peaceful place to live with lots of open spaces, Casper college is a high ranking community college that offers cooperation with the university of Wyoming allowing for a very wide range of degree and certificate programs. The town is small compared to other larger cities but still offers alot of entertainment, if you spend skittle time to go out and look for it. I would recommend this town to anyone who wants to raise a child of participate in college without the congestion of a larger university setting.
