A lot of Wyoming’s growth over the years has been boom/bust surges. Some of it has also been service related jobs in tourist communities. The service jobs might stay, but the people filling them come and go.
What Wyoming has little of is the type of permanent growth associated with industry, manufacturing, Silicon Valley, etc. When it comes to making a living here, it can be tough to find your niche.
I mentioned I’m a cop and my wife works at the bank. Those are “good” jobs and we’ve found our niche. But there are only so many of those jobs available and the turnover isn’t that great. It’s worth repeating, it’s not impossible to make it in Wyoming, but it can be tough to find your niche.
Want the best chance of finding a good job in Wyoming, whenever, wherever? Registered Nurse. Seems like many communities can’t get enough.
