Ralston, WY

Ralston is a small, quiet community in northwest Wyoming, located right along the highway between Cody and Powell. Home to around 240 residents, it offers wide-open mountain views, surrounding farmland, and a relaxed pace, with the advantage of being just minutes from everyday conveniences, schools, and medical care in neighboring Powell. The settlement got its start in the early 1900s as a railroad stop tied to Buffalo Bill Cody's regional irrigation projects. That agricultural heritage still runs deep today, with the historic Ralston Community Clubhouse serving as a neighborhood gathering spot for local events and long-time residents.
