What is it like to live in Laramie?
– Top Home to the University of Wyoming, Laramie (population 27,000) is situated in southeastern Wyoming, two hours north of Denver, near the foot of the Snowy Range of the Rocky Mountains. UW was recently named by Outside magazine as one of the 40 best college towns in the United States, and for good reason: the rugged mountains and high plains of the Snowies and the Medicine Bow National Forest to the east and west of town offer boundless opportunities for hiking, camping, trout fishing, mountain biking, rock climbing, and skiing.
