Cody city, WY in context

How this area compares with national benchmarks.

Cody city is a mid-size town in Wyoming, with 10,121 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #11 of 205 ranked by population — larger than 95% of them. The median age here is 41.7 years against 39.1 nationally, a slightly older profile than the country as a whole. Places under 65,000 residents only appear in the five-year release, never the one-year file, so these values pool sixty months of responses and lag the current year by design.

Households in Cody city earn a median of $68,676 a year, 12.6% below the national figure of $78,538 and within a couple of points of the $69,912 median for the 54 Wyoming cities we cover. This figure covers the household, not the worker: two people on ordinary wages at one address outrank a single professional in the same table. Poverty reaches 8.1% of residents here, below the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Cody city is valued at $357,300, 17.8% above the national figure and 42% above the $251,500 peer median, while median gross rent runs $1,039 a month, 26.1% below the national figure, or roughly $12,468 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 18.2% of gross pay toward that rent against the federal 30% cost-burden threshold, so renting here is cheap relative to what people here earn. The home-price-to-income ratio works out to 5.2×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is harder here than in the average US market. 68.2% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans toward owners. The rent line includes utilities paid by the tenant, a definition worth remembering when comparing it against a landlord's quoted rate.
