Bar Nunn, Wyoming real estate

A fast-growing town north of Casper, built on the old airport.

The town built on a runway

Bar Nunn has one of the best origin stories in Wyoming. It sits about six miles north of Casper, and it is built on the site of Wardwell Field, Casper's original airport. A rancher named Romie Nunn bought the airport land in 1954 and began subdividing it, the town took his name and incorporated in 1982, and the old runways still form the framework of its streets. The town's own logo traces the original runway layout.

Today Bar Nunn is one of the faster-growing communities in the area, and we sell throughout it. Here is how we work.

Newer homes, bigger lots

Bar Nunn is known for newer homes on larger lots, and it generally runs pricier than close-in Mills or Evansville while still being a short drive from Casper. For buyers who want a bit more space and a newer build without going far out of town, it is one of the most popular moves around.

It has grown fast, roughly a third larger over the last decade. Wyoming does not publish sale prices, so we price from the real numbers.

What you get choosing Bar Nunn

Bar Nunn is the move for space and a newer home close to Casper, with a genuinely distinctive identity. You generally pay more than in Mills or Evansville, and in return you get bigger lots, newer construction, and a quick ten-to-fifteen-minute drive into the city. It is part of Natrona County School District #1; we always suggest confirming current school assignments with the district before you buy.
