How rural is it there?
Thermopolis, home of the world's
largest natural hot springs, is a small town, but has most of the
amenities of a larger town. There is a post office, library,
hospital, a few attractions and restaurants, and a few
shopping opportunities. The closest Walmart is in Riverton, an hour
and fifteen minutes away. The closest shopping mall is in Casper, two and
a half hours away. Yellowstone National Park and the Grand
Tetons are within three hours drive.
