Laramie Location Map Wyoming

Laramie County is Wyoming’s most populous county. It sits in the southeastern corner of the state. Cheyenne, the state capital, calls this place home. It’s where the high plains meet the Rocky Mountains.

You’ll feel the cowboy spirit here, especially during Cheyenne Frontier Days. It’s the world’s largest outdoor rodeo. But there’s more to Laramie County than just cowboys.

The air force base brings in folks from all over. Agriculture is still big here. Cattle ranches and wheat fields fill the landscape. The Transcontinental Railroad came right through here. From wide-open spaces to city amenities, Laramie County has a little bit of everything.
