The rules in Wyoming

Wyoming sex offender laws & risk levels

Offense-based registration. Wyoming registers offenders with durations tied to the offense (15 years, 25 years, or life under its federal-style structure) and publishes registrants on the Division of Criminal Investigation's public site.

No statewide residency restriction. Wyoming law does not restrict where registrants live; individual conditions come through supervision.

Registration & verification. Registrants must keep their address, employment, and schooling current with the registry, and verify in person on a recurring schedule — more frequently for higher-risk or higher-tier registrants. Failure to register or verify is itself a crime and commonly appears as a listed offense on registry records.

Wyoming sex offender registry FAQ

How many registered sex offenders live in Wyoming?

As of August 2026, there are 3,119 registered sex offenders in Wyoming — about 54.1 for every 10,000 residents, 125% above the national average. Counts change as offenders register, move, or are removed from the registry.

Which city in Wyoming has the most sex offenders?

Cheyenne has the most registered sex offenders in Wyoming with 533. Raw counts track population, so the fairer comparison is per capita: adjusted for population, Cheyenne has the highest rate among major cities at 81.8 per 10,000 residents, while Laramie has the lowest at 26.7.

How do I find sex offenders near my address in Wyoming?

Use the free Predator Map app to search any Wyoming address and see registered offenders around it on a map, with photos and offense details from official registry records. You can also search the official Wyoming Sex Offender Registry (DCI) website directly.

Why is this number different from the official Wyoming registry website?

Public registry websites only show what the state chooses to publish. Wyoming publishes registrants on the DCI site. Statistics on this page are compiled from aggregated official registry records, so they can differ from — and often exceed — what a manual search of the public site returns.

Does Wyoming restrict where sex offenders can live?

No statewide residency restriction. Wyoming law does not restrict where registrants live; individual conditions come through supervision. Address-level monitoring matters more than assumptions about "safe" neighborhoods.

How current is this data?

Statistics on this page are compiled from official state registry records and refreshed monthly. This page was last updated in August 2026. Always verify individual records with the official state registry.

Can I get alerts when a sex offender moves near me in Wyoming?

Yes. Predator Map Pro monitors up to 5 addresses daily and sends push and email alerts when a registered offender moves in nearby, a new offender registers, or someone moves away.

Is it legal to look up sex offenders near me?

Yes. Registry information is public record under federal and state law (Megan's Law), and anyone may search it to protect themselves and their family. What the law prohibits is using registry information to harass, threaten, or commit a crime against a registrant — misuse can be prosecuted.

Methodology: Statistics are compiled from aggregated official state registry records and refreshed monthly. City figures count the city listed on each registry record. Per-capita rates use 2020 U.S. Census populations. Aggregated counts can exceed what public registry websites display because some classification levels are excluded from public searches. Figures are estimates and change daily as registries update — always verify individual records with the official state registry.
