The Community
Teton County is a year-round resort community, located in the northwestern corner of Wyoming. It serves as a southern gateway to Grand Teton and Yellowstone National Parks and is home to three world class ski resorts. Approximately 97% of the land within the county’s borders is held in public
ownership – National Park, National Elk Refuge and National Forest.
As a community, Teton County is characterized by its commitment to outdoor adventure, education and philanthropy, demonstrated by abundant arts, recreational and cultural offerings for residents and visitors alike. In the summers, we host more than three million visitors from around the world. Despite
this influx, Jackson Hole proudly maintains its western heritage and hospitality.
As a resort community with a tourism-based economy, living in Teton County costs about 32% more than in the rest of the state with much of the higher cost coming from housing. In addition, this means county agencies, like the library, serve an economically diverse demographic, from second homeowners to low-wage service employees.
