Story CDP, WY in context
How this area compares with national benchmarks.
Story CDP is a small town in Wyoming, with 1,174 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #54 of 205 ranked by population — larger than 74% of them. The median age here is 44.7 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 Story CDP earn a median of $130,227 a year, 65.8% above the national figure of $78,538 and 86% above the $69,912 median for the 54 Wyoming cities we cover. The median is the midpoint household, not an average, so a handful of very high earners cannot drag it upward the way they distort a mean. Poverty reaches 1.5% of residents here, less than half the 12.4% national rate.
The typical owner-occupied home in Story CDP is valued at not published, while median gross rent runs not published a month. 80.2% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, an owner-dominated market where rental listings are scarce and rent medians rest on a thin sample. The rent line includes utilities paid by the tenant, a definition worth remembering when comparing it against a landlord's quoted rate.
The Census withheld home value, gross rent for Story CDP because the sample was too thin to publish at this geography. Those values were suppressed at the source, not lost in our dataset, and we do not model a replacement. Everything else on this page comes straight from the ACS 2019-2023 ACS 5-year tables.
