Wyoming is a small city in southern Chisago County on Interstate 35 about 25 minutes north of St. Paul.  After merging with Wyoming Township in 2008, Wyoming now covers just over 22 square miles and has a population of nearly 7000.

Wyoming was the first stop on the stagecoach route from Rice Street in St. Paul to Duluth. In the 1860’s, travelers to Duluth stopped here for the night and the stagecoach horses were changed. The livery barn for the horses is gone now but it was just west of US 61 in the southern part of the Industrial Park. The house where the travelers stayed overnight still exists, on the corner of Viking Boulevard and US 61. If you wanted to go on a shopping trip to St. Paul in an oxcart, it was a 2-day trip! Pretty hard to become a shoppaholic. After the era of the stagecoach, the same travelers’ house served as a train crew house when the St. Paul & Duluth Railroad Company laid tracks down the old stage road.

Wyoming is actively seeking businesses and industry for affordable relocation and development.  With a large industrial park, and a large area zoned for medical right near Wyoming's state of the art Fairview Lakes Medical Center ( http://www.fairview.org/Hospitals/Lakes/index.htm ).
