Wyoming’s unemployment rate ticked down to 3.3% in April 2025, according to new data from the Department of Workforce Services. That’s down from 3.4% in March, and still well below the national rate of 4.2%.
Teton County saw a slight rise from 2.4% in March to 2.9% in April, an increase that’s typical for the shoulder season as winter tourism jobs taper off. Still, the current rate remains a full point lower than the 3.9% recorded two years ago in April 2023, suggesting a relatively stronger labor market year-over-year despite seasonal fluctuations.
Elsewhere across the state, unemployment dropped in most counties thanks to seasonal hiring in construction and business services. Notable declines were seen in Niobrara (down to 2.9%) and Sublette (down to 2.8%).
Wyoming added 4,900 nonfarm jobs compared to this time last year, bringing total statewide employment to 293,500, an increase of 1.7%.
