Second Homes on the Range

In some parts of Wyoming, "25 to 50 percent of the housing market is second homes," David 'Tex' Taylor, a community development specialist at the University of Wyoming College of Agriculture, told a local paper. 'That's pretty substantial. In the state as a whole, if you look at 1990 to 2000, there is a growth rate (in second homes) of over 30 percent.'"
