Wilson CDP, WY in context
How this area compares with national benchmarks.
Wilson CDP is a small town in Wyoming, with 1,255 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #51 of 205 ranked by population — larger than 75% of them. The median age here is 46.6 years against 39.1 nationally, a markedly older profile that usually tracks retirees staying put and younger households leaving for work. 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 Wilson CDP earn a median of $102,055 a year, 29.9% above the national figure of $78,538 and 46% above the $69,912 median for the 54 Wyoming cities we cover. Median household income counts every pre-tax dollar arriving at an address — wages, self-employment, Social Security, pensions, interest and public assistance — for everyone living there, so multi-earner households pull the figure up even where individual pay is modest. Poverty reaches 12.6% of residents here, above the 12.4% national rate.
The typical owner-occupied home in Wilson CDP is valued at not published, while median gross rent runs not published a month. 78.7% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans toward owners. 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.
Median income runs above the national figure while poverty also runs above it — a split distribution, not a uniformly comfortable place. Averages hide that; the two numbers together do not.
The Census withheld home value, gross rent for Wilson 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.
