Review of Cheyenne, Wyoming


I have lived all over, and I choose Cheyenne
Star Rating - 1/24/2008
My husband was in the military and we lived all over. From North Dakota to Arkansas, to Europe and beyond....When it came time for retirement, we chose Cheyenne to call home.

The crime rate is extremely low. Yes, housing is completely out of control...but in our travels, we have discovered that housing is out of control in most places.

The statements that there is NOTHING to do, is incorrect. There is plenty of events that happen at the Civic Center. We have had the Moscow Ballet not only perform here, but include our children in the performances. Coming soon are additional performances, including Gypsy and Chicago. If you still seem to think that those aren't good enough, Denver is just a short distance away....close enough to visit, but far enough away not to be a huge influence.

So sorry that you all have had bad experiences here....and yes the drivers here could use a lesson or two in the proper manners in which to drive, but I think that it is the best place for families!!!

Cheyenne is a great place to live. I use to live in Cheyenne, and I am looking forward to moving back. People need to stop complaining and find a place where they want to be and move. No one is making you stay in Cheyenne. Cheyenne has hardly any traffic, you're close to everything, and most of the people are nice and friendly, there are jerks in every state. I like the state I am in, but there is good and bad here. Cheyenne has wide open spaces, clean air, and there is plenty to do if you really want to do it. There are a lot of places that pay really good,you have to look for them, they are out there. Find where you want to be and move there, live happy, life is way to short.
