Jeffrey City

Jeffrey City pairs the openness of Wyoming’s high desert with the stark legacy of a uranium boom, a contrast that reflects its position in the Wind River Basin. Established in the 1950s to support workers in the nearby Gas Hills uranium district, it grew rapidly during the industry’s peak before contracting sharply as mining declined. Today, the settlement stands beside U.S. Route 287 amid sagebrush plains and long horizons, illustrating the boom-and-bust history of mineral development in central Wyoming.
