Why tourism?
In 2022, Cheyenne and Laramie County welcome an estimated 2.5 million overnight visitors.
Visitors spent $442 million in the Cheyenne area (Laramie County) in 2022, providing 3,540 local jobs.
Visitors paid $24.8 million in state and local taxes in 2022.
Laramie County has the 3rd highest level of traveler spending among Wyoming counties, behind Teton & Park Counties.
If the travel industry were a single business, it would rank as the county's third largest employer behind F.E. Warren Air Force Base and the State of Wyoming.
Without the tax contribution of tourists, each Laramie County household would pay an additional $878 in taxes to maintain existing government services.
