Take-home pay in Wyoming

Estimate what a salary in Wyoming (WY) becomes after federal tax, no state wage income tax, FICA, typical benefits, and optional commute costs.

Wyoming does not tax wage income, so StubRate’s state line is $0. Federal tax and FICA still apply. That is why the same salary often keeps more here than in Colorado or Montana—before housing in a boom town.

Use this page for Cheyenne and Casper jobs, energy W-2 work, and remote roles that list Wyoming as the tax home.

Sample: $85,000 single filer in Wyoming → about $5,307/mo net (74.9% stub rate) and $5,130/mo after a modest hybrid commute and lunches. Assumptions: 5% 401(k), $140/month health, three office days, 12 miles each way.

Income tax in Wyoming

No state wage income tax is the whole state story in this model. Sales and mineral-related taxes affect the state’s budget more than your withholding line.

Colorado’s income tax is the usual comparison. Jackson Hole housing can erase a tax win that looks perfect in Cheyenne.

Every U.S. W-2 wage still faces federal income tax and FICA (Social Security plus Medicare). Wyoming’s difference is the state line.

Living and commuting in Wyoming

Cheyenne, Casper, Laramie, Gillette, and Jackson are not one housing market. Wind and winter are commute time. Energy sites can mean long drives, not a 12-mile city loop.

If you would keep a Colorado job and a Wyoming address, do not assume Colorado tax disappears. Residency is a legal fact pattern.

Common job markets on this page: Cheyenne, Casper, Gillette, Laramie. Housing and office days change true stub rate more than a small difference in the state tax shortcut.

Compare two offers if one job is in Wyoming and the other is elsewhere—or if commute days differ.
