One thing I noticed right off the get go, is how clean this city is. That really impresses me, even the back alleys are clean. I live in Detroit, Michigan and there's trash everywhere. Well done Cheyenne, that's something to be proud of.

Cheyenne is a very small city . I think that's the main reason. People put alot into political control but it's much harder to provide public services like clean up in large cities and we all know the money goes to the rich side of town no matter who controls the politics

Great video, I've lived in Cheyenne for 8 years now. Originally from Virginia, moved to Colorado in 2000. 14 years later I was working a job just 10 miles from the CO/WY state line, brutal weather. I was driving from Longmont, CO, roughly 1 1/2 hours drive each way. I got tired of the commute and moved north to Cheyenne, 25 minute drive by comparison. I ended up getting a VA loan and bought a small house dating back to 1923 in the old historic district on the south side of that railroad bridge you crossed at the start of the video. I got a job in town and only drive 4 miles to work. Oh, and NO STATE INCOME TAX!

Born and raised in Cheyenne. :) I love my little city. Its very interesting to see a visitor’s perspective. You taught me some things about our history. Wyoming was the first state to give women the right to vote in 1920. We had our 100 year anniversary celebration a couple years ago. The governor is a regular customer at one of the restaurants I used to work at, so I have met him many times. My coworker was from LA and the first time I told her he was the governor she was shocked that in Wyoming we can just eat lunch with the governor on any given day. My daughter is a great great granddaughter of Chief Washakie. We have a few statues and paintings of him in Wyoming. We have a lot of different kind of people here. Some of my long time friends did that artwork downtown. When I was in Jr. High our art class painted the license plate cowboy boot in front of the Museum. I believe it was a fundraiser for the school. Businesses bought the boots from the students for a high price. That’s also interesting your grew up in Tulsa, OK because my best friend in the whole world lives there now. Small world.

I was there twice. Last time was in October of 2019, a bright, sunny October day where I walked through the Capitol, sampled a few beers downtown, including one from Accomplice, a wheat beer called Sol Dance. I walked off the buzz by walking halfway across the bridge in your opening segment and back. I had flown into Denver the night before, rented a car one-way with Cheyenne being the northernmost point in my trip, continuing south-southeast, leaving the car in Houston before flying back home. My mom had died three week eariler in Ohio and this was a "go for a long drive before you make any life-changing decisions" kind of trip.

Definitely one to visit if and when I can get the chance. Loved the video, Cheyenne looks fantastic, everything a tourist would want from an American road trip. Also you can tell the locals take pride in their neighbourhood, and the artists are certainly gifted, very talented people. Glad wifey got another stamp. Best place yet, thanks for the tour of Cheyenne 🤗

Hi. Nice video. I grew up and currently live in Cheyenne. In fact, I was surprised when you drove by my childhood home (NE Cheyenne off College Dr). The streets that are dirt road in that area are county pockets that have not been annexed into the proper city limits. College Drive actually used to be the edge of town back in the 70s the city grew around these county pockets.

Hey thanks for stopping by our cute little town glad you had a great time. Just wanted mention that the art on the buildings is something the chamber of commerce let's local artists do so they can share their ideas. The space across from atlas Theater used to be a bakery but it burned down the owner was wanting to rebuild it but I don't think he could get the money to its been almost 20 years now. And dirt roads usually is the county and paved would be the city its really wierd but it's like a checkered board. Wyoming is where most of the cowboy stories come from and outlaws. If you ever come across a buffalo keep your distance please do not try to pet them they are aggressive.

OMG you have such a way of bringing these cities to life that I was having happy bouts of nostalgia while watching. I lived in Cheyenne from 2001-03 but first visited in 1976 on a 4-H Exchange Trip. Our host family performed with the Old Fashioned Melodrama at the Atlas Theater and we went every night. It was so much fun! Everybody gathered out back after the show for an impromptu party as the trains were passing by. In those days we Rhode Islanders thought we were out in the middle of nowhere, not even a part of the US but still out in the territories. There was nothing around for miles. When I lived there there was not all that artwork and definitely no Cowboy Boots in front of the train station. That was so cool showing Cattlebarron's Way and Keefe Row. I don't even remember that! I lived on 31st St, near the State Capitol. Thanks for the tour. The only time I ever went there was to get my notary paperwork signed, as I worked for the city. I wish I had taken the time to walk through it and see that, so thanks for taking me along! I just fell in love with that city 46 years ago and still love it to this day. I do remember you said you grew up in a trailer park when you were driving around Bismark, ND I think it was. Our host family lived on top of a ridge when I first went there in '76. You could see for miles. When I moved there in 2001 there had been a subdivision built in back of their land but like you said, other than that it was the same. When the houses ended, the prairie began. THANK YOU SO MUCH, YOUR VIDEO MADE MY DAY!

Another great tour and what a nice clean city Cheyenne looks. I always associate the name with the Wild West. Also, what beautiful architecture, homes and surrounding areas it has. The Capitol Building and museum looked great, as did your lunch. 😆 I'd love to visit this historical city, as well as that quirky bar. Must be great being able to drive through the different states of America. As usual, your commentary was fab. Thank you both for sharing this video. Best wishes from the UK. 🤗

Just read Chicago was nicknamed the windy city due to both windstorms (winds from lake Michigan?) and because people were full of hot air/BS. I think referring to politicians or "city slickers" full of BS.

Having lived here for 25+ years I will add just a few tidbits. When you go from paved to dirt in the city, you have usually crossed into county maintenance. The Capitol building and the train depot are facing each other so they could keep an eye on each other. You were lucky enough to visit on a day with little wind. I've always thought that one of the reasons Cheyenne is so clean is because all our loose trash blows into Nebraska. You don't fly a kite in Wyoming...they fly you. But the heat and the cold in Wyoming are both dry and keep the temps comfortable. I grew up in NY where the first snowflake that fell in Oct. turned to slush in Nov. and finally melted in May. I'll take the wind.......

In the 4th grade I did my report on State History titled; WELCOME TO WONDERFUL WINDY WYOMING. That was more than 50 years ago and I still have the report. Cheyenne is not really a part of Wyoming. It was supposed to be in Nebraska but the wind blew the boundary line too far east and so Wyoming was enlarged by about 40 miles.

Hi there! I’ve lived in Cheyenne for over half my life. You just touched on our murals, we have over 70 of them, and more are added each year. The bronze statues you showed are also part of a city wide project to add art to the downtown experience. One thing I must comment on is the gravel roads. They are actually pockets of county owned property that the city grew around, so therefore not technically in the city. Even though it is surrounded by city property. Not sure why that is, but that is why it is still gravel. I also have an historic home in the Rainsford district, unfortunately you didn’t show the cattle barons streets. 17th and 18th streets, and Carrie Avenue have a lot of original historic homes from that period. Also during that time Cheyenne had more millionaires per capita than anywhere in the US. Cheyenne’s history really is fascinating, I hope you look into it further. I really enjoyed your video and perspective on our city. Hope you get to stop by another time. Safe travels! Jeff Tish, Cheyenne resident.

I grew up in Cheyenne and my first job was a dishwasher at Sanfords! Sanfords has always been a great place with an awesome atmosphere and great food. Hasn’t changed one bit. The city in the other hand has made a ton of improvements over the past five years and really improved their social/night life

As a resident of this fine little city, I have to say this was a pleasure to watch, and I'm enjoying all the words of admiration in the comments for this place that I so love. Thanks for posting! P.S: Next time you come through, take a detour to the corner of 21st and Alexander. There's a house there called The Slack House, so named because its original owner Robert Slack was one of the main proponents in starting Frontier Days! Very cool architecture, if not as well maintained as some other historic buildings.
