    But, Bobby, just because it named that way, doesn't mean they necessarily live there! The only race we seen there was white, when we were there. Go to Cheyenne Frontier Days.......whites only (that I ever saw).

    You are absolutely right Cody. My town is not like every other town, thats why I live here. I go to the grocery, leave my windows down,chain saw,tools etc. in the back, keys in the ignition, no worries, it won't be touched. I have no idea where my house keys are, my doors have never been locked. About the only crime we have is DUI, or Domestic violence. Other than DV the only murder was a girl killed at a party back in the eighties.
    I know every merchant in town and most of their kids.
    I read of other folks living arrangements on the interweb and I am horrified. I must live in some kind of Nirvana.

    None? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cheyenne,_Wyoming

    Just about the same as any other city it’s size.
    Frontier days? Yup, did that and made a lot of money from a huge crosscut of races particularly the Latino’s who like to throw a baseball.

    Yeah, my wife’s home town in Idaho is about the same way. Really beautiful, really quiet and really safe.

    @Yvonne Smith

    Two things: Once during a conversation about prejudice, Sammy Davis, Jr. asked his companion: Think you experience prejudice? Try being a Black Jew!!

    Appearing early years ago in Vegas, Davis ordered young white girls sent to his room. The stolid Mormon sub-culture there strongly disapproved, and let him know. The activity was said to cease immediately. Even worse was Michael Jackson, who entertained young boys off-stage: his name was gone off the Marquee the next morning, he being kicked out my Stephen Wynn.

    Well, we were there (Cheyenne Frontier Days aka CFD) in 2018 and didn't see any race but white. Seriously. So, when was the last time you were at CFD?

    As far as your "same as any other city it's size".........demographics of Cheyenne is 87.54% white, 3.5% black. Our city is less than 1% black. Jacksonville, Florida is 58.75% white and 30.96% black. There are blacks and other races in Denver, but Denver is known for it's diversity, while we definitely aren't. Don't know why, but the black population is much higher in some parts of the U.S. than others. West Virginia black population is only 3%.
