What would come to mind if we asked you to picture classic cowboy country? Would you picture "Marlboro Country®"--a vast expanse of blue sky, jagged snowcapped mountains, thick pine forests, and rivers? If so, that's Jackson, WY.
Jackson, WY has attracted adventurous souls since the beginning of time. Although the land was fertile, it was cooperation among the early settlers that was essential to both survival and prosperity. Today Jackson is one of the most affluent and friendly cities in the western United States. Two National Parks, Yellowstone and Grand Teton, provide the most dramatic natural playgrounds and scenic areas in the Rocky Mountain region. Real estate values in Jackson have been shaped more by conservation practices than by development and promotion. Strict zoning regulations designed to protect the vast open spaces by controlling growth, have resulted in a consistent increase of property values over the past 15 years. 97% of Teton County, WY is permanently protected from development as national parks, forests, BLM, or is under permanent conservation easement.
Jackson is unique in its tax advantages and location. Wyoming does not have state income tax, either personal or corporate, no intangibles tax and very reasonable sales and property tax. Jackson Hole, the valley just to the south of us, was noted in Barron's as one of the top 20 Best Places to Retire to protect and preserve wealth. Residents and visitors are also able to enjoy the Jackson Hole Mountain Resort, one of the nation's largest and most exciting ski resorts. There are world-class musical performances at the Grand Teton Music Festival, exceptional displays of artwork at the National Museum of Wildlife Art, two world-class golf courses, and fine local dining at well-known restaurants. All these amenities and more are to be had in and around Jackson.
Travel here is easy, even without a car. A variety of shuttle busses run every hour, and Jackson Hole Airport has excellent air service via United, Delta, Northwest, and American Airlines.
Jackson, WY is named for David (Davey) Edward Jackson, a beaver trapper from the early nineteen hundreds. Descriptions of the valley were later found in the journals of John Colter, a former member of the Lewis and Clark Exhibition and the first Caucasian to explore the area. According to Wikipedia, Colter's "reports of the valley, the Teton Range and of the Yellowstone region to the north were viewed by people of the day with skepticism."
