A glimpse of the Old West is present in modern day Cody, Wyoming
Cody, Wyoming is a unique and historic Wyoming community located 52 miles from Yellowstone National Park, in northwest Wyoming. Cody was founded in 1896 by the colorful and famous western character, Colonel William F. “Buffalo Bill” Cody. The town of Cody is considered the “East Entrance” to our nation’s first and largest national park. In 1872, President Ulysses S. Grant signed a law declaring that Yellowstone Park would forever be "dedicated and set apart as a public park or pleasuring ground for the benefit and enjoyment of the people."
Cody represents the epitome of the Old West: a true western community that provides a draw to the cultural, social and technological opportunities of a global community, while maintaining the rural character and quality of life that a small western town offers. Cody is proud of it’s diverse economy, which includes energy, tourism, agriculture, manufacturing, retail and the arts.
