About Worland

Worland sits in the heart of north-central Wyoming's Big Horn Basin, right along the Big Horn River. Home to around 4,800 people, it is a quiet agricultural hub surrounded by open fields and distant mountain views. Farming and ranching anchor the local economy, alongside food processing, energy work, and county services. Highways 16 and 20 run straight through town, giving residents a straightforward route south to the hot springs in Thermopolis or east into the Bighorn Mountains.

As the Washakie County seat, Worland offers more everyday conveniences than most towns its size. The community has its own hospital, a modern aquatic center, well-kept city parks, and a reliable public school district. Life here moves at a relaxed pace, with a high-desert climate that brings warm, sunny summers and cold, dry winters. For anyone looking for a friendly small-town feel, minimal traffic, and easy access to Wyoming's great outdoors, Worland is an easy place to call home.
