We love it here. Theres a great community here. The people are nice, the schools are great and the restaurants are amazing. The fact that it's a college town makes it a little much to handle sometimes. But we do it.
Close to Cheyenne, so there's shopping and good food, but small town enough to be safe and secure. You can leave your door unlocked and you won't have problem. Neighbors are nice! they say hello, they care about you and that part is very nice. We are refugees from California, we hated it there. Crime was terrible, politics were horrible and the Realestate market was insane! Not here!

I love and hate Laramie for its size! I wish it were bigger and that the town was updated in multiple areas like the downtown, things to do and overall appearance, but i also appreciate that it is a small town in Wyoming that many people see as homey and a get away from the larger cities and states surrounding it. Laramie is a great college town and somewhere I will continue to appreciate for its small town personality the longer I am here and for years after i am gone.
I came to Laramie to attend university when I was 23. Four years later at age 27 I’m still here, own and operate a business and am a resident. I like Laramie a lot, but it lacks people my age and things to do other than go to the mountains or to the bars on the weekends. I wish there was a solid late 20’s culture here. It’s more college students and older people with families. Laramie is a great place to raise a family, but needs more for the young adults!
