This section digs into Wyoming's income figures — the $76,176 median, the thresholds for the top of the distribution, earnings by age, and the gap between its richest and poorest counties.
Wyoming sits in the middle of the national pack: $76,176 at the median, ranking 30th of 51 and 6% below the $80,734 US figure. Keep in mind the numbers aren't price-adjusted, so they compare incomes, not purchasing power.
Wyoming's top-quarter threshold of about $127,575 compares with $141,925 across the country. The share of households at $200,000 or more is 9% versus 13% nationwide, 5 points lower.
Comparing the two Census products: $75,532 in the 2024 one-year estimate, $76,176 in the 2020–2024 five-year estimate (−1%).
The share of Wyoming households at $200,000 or more is about 9%. By household income, the top 25% start at about $127,575, and the top 10% at about $188,264. The table marks lines that fall above $200,000 rather than guessing their value: the Census groups everyone above that amount together, so the exact top-5% and top-1% cutoffs can't be read from this data.
On Wyoming's distribution, the national median income of $80,734 corresponds to roughly the top 47%.
A simple spread measure — top-25% line divided by the median — comes to 1.68 for Wyoming against 1.77 for the country, narrower than the national pattern.

Looking at individual earners rather than households, the Wyoming median climbs 35% from the 25–34 group ($44,688) to the 45–54 group ($60,328). Compared age-for-age with the nation, the gap averages −6% and is largest at 65+: $30,458 here, $34,745 nationwide. These figures are personal earnings (wages plus self-employment) from Census microdata, so they're lower than household income, which can combine several earners.
