Tie Siding sits in the high country of southeastern Wyoming, where Albany County spreads across 124 square miles of rural landscape. Just 89 people call this area home year-round, spread across 44 occupied households. The median age of 58.5 years tells the story of a quiet retirement community, far from the nearest city.
Mail delivery here works differently than in typical towns. Highway contract routes serve the scattered homes across this vast territory. With 58 highway route records and just 1 rural route, delivery follows the pattern of remote Wyoming communities where distances are measured in miles, not blocks. Street delivery isn't centered in a town core but spread across isolated properties.
Street names read like a field guide to the Rocky Mountain West. Pumpkin Vine Road, Deer Crossing Road, Elk Ridge Road, and Bear Mountain Trail dot the landscape. Other roads carry names like Lone Wolf Trail, Bobcat Ridge Road, and Raven Rock Road. These aren't subdivision marketing, they map actual terrain where wildlife and weather shape daily life.
Nearly half the housing units (41 of 97) sit vacant for seasonal use. That's 42% of all homes. Median home values of $479,200 and high educational attainment (59% hold bachelor's degrees) suggest retirees and second-home owners drawn to Wyoming's tax advantages and mountain scenery. Most residents (39 of 44 households) own their homes.
The community sits along US Highway 287, the main corridor connecting Laramie to the north and Fort Collins to the south. Nearby subdivisions like Remount Pines and Harriman Heights lie 14 miles east, closer to Cheyenne's metro area. Tie Siding occupies the western edge of the county, where the plains meet the Medicine Bow Mountains.
Street names emphasize the Rocky Mountain wildlife and ranching heritage: Elk Ridge, Bear Mountain, Lone Wolf Trail, and Bobcat Ridge alongside ranch roads and natural features.
