Mountain View town, WY in context
How this area compares with national benchmarks.
Mountain View town is a small town in Wyoming, with 1,017 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #58 of 205 ranked by population — larger than 72% of them. The median age here is 44.9 years against 39.1 nationally, a slightly older profile than the country as a whole. At this population the ACS sample is small, so the margin of error around every dollar figure below is wide — treat the numbers as a band, not a point, and expect them to move between annual releases without the place itself changing.
Households in Mountain View town earn a median of $71,607 a year, 8.8% 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 11.5% of residents here, below the 12.4% national rate.
The typical owner-occupied home in Mountain View town is valued at $246,300, 18.8% below the national figure and within a couple of points of the $251,500 peer median, while median gross rent runs $792 a month, 43.7% below the national figure, or roughly $9,504 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 13.3% 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 3.4×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 60.2% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans more heavily on renters. Rent is reported gross — contract rent plus tenant-paid utilities — which is why it runs above the advertised price on a listing for the same unit.
No figure on this page is estimated by us; each one comes straight from the published ACS tables for this area. Small-area estimates still carry wider margins of error than state or national figures, so check the linked ACS tables before relying on them for lending, appraisal or legal work.
