Communities
Cheyenne has a strong community spirit of pride and preservation. Newly named a Preserve America city, Cheyenne has a strong record of keeping history alive. The community celebrates together at several big events over the course of the year including Frontier Days, Oktoberfest, the Goblin Walk and the Easter Egg Hunt. A latchkey program to keep kids safe is offered by the Parks and Recreation Dept. for before and after school fun and greenways and parks offer places for the community to gather.
Neighborhoods include: Cobblestone Court, The Avenues, South Park, Sun Valley, Western Hills, Near Eastside and Downtown Cheyenne. Neighborhoods around F.E. Warren Air Force Base provide housing for the many Air Force employees continuing a proud tradition begun here in 1867. With an eye on smart growth new communities are being planned and built including The Pointe, which covering 300 acres, includes ranch-style townhouses, single-family homes with large front porches, tree-lined streets and 70 acres of open space with two parks and a man-made lake. Cheyenne’s government has created Vision 2020, a plan for future residential development with a goal of making pedestrian friendly places for people to live and work.
