Meeteetse's housing carries a real, disclosed cross-source spread of approximately $153,900-$285,000 (this record's primary figure: $257,500) -- well below both the approximately $408,776 national median sale price and Park County's own dramatically higher, tourism-inflated county-level median (approximately $400,500, driven by the Cody/Yellowstone-gateway market) (base record).
A disclosed property-tax research gap
This pass's research budget was exhausted before developing a Park-County-specific effective property tax rate -- a real, disclosed gap this record fills honestly with Wyoming's own statewide 0.53% anchor as the best available proxy, itself well below the approximately 1.02% national median (base record).
No state income tax, plus a low statewide sales tax
Wyoming's Constitution forbids a state individual income tax outright, a real, current fact that applies fully in Meeteetse. Wyoming's own 4.00% state sales tax rate, plus up to 2% local option, applies as well (base record).
A real, disclosed cost-of-living research gap
