How Wyoming's businesses compare
Wyoming has 40.6 business establishments per 1,000 residents, 65.2% above the U.S. figure of 24.6. Establishments average 8.9 employees against 16.7 nationally, and payroll per employee is $58,628 (14.2% below the U.S. $68,342). 62.5% of establishments with employees have fewer than five people (U.S.: 55.5%), while 2.4% have 50 or more. Most establishments are far smaller than the average suggests, so it pays to price a phone plan at the headcount you actually have rather than the average.
| Employment size | Establishments | Share | U.S. share |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1–4 employees | 14,919 | 62.5% | 55.5% |
| 5–9 employees | 4,065 | 17.0% | 17.5% |
| 10–19 employees | 2,682 | 11.2% | 12.5% |
| 20–49 employees | 1,622 | 6.8% | 9.1% |
| 50 or more employees | 577 | 2.4% | 5.4% |
Employment-size classes count establishments by mid-March 2023 employment. Establishments with no March employees are excluded from the size classes, so shares are of establishments with employees. Source: Census County Business Patterns 2023.

Choosing an area code in Wyoming
0 of Wyoming's 1 area codes require ten-digit dialing for local calls; in the others NANPA still lists seven-digit local dialing. None of Wyoming's area codes is in an overlay, so each code maps to its own territory. A business that serves one city usually takes a number in that city's dominant code; one that covers a region can hold up to 3 local numbers on Callata's plan.

Callata in Wyoming
For $99 a month, Callata puts a team of up to 5 on one plan ($20 for each person after that): up to 3 local numbers, unlimited inbound calls, a pooled allowance of 1,500 outbound US and Canada minutes per user, browser and cell calling, voicemail transcription with urgency triage, recorded calls with AI summaries and business-hours routing, with E911 on every number.
If you already have a number in Wyoming, porting it to Callata is free. Texting from a local number requires a one-time carrier registration (10DLC, $49), and the numbers available in any area code depend on carrier inventory when you choose them.
Optional AI agents (receptionist, sales, support or scheduler) can answer calls after hours or when nobody picks up, take messages, text, email and transfer to your team. They are billed from prepaid AI minutes at $0.25 per minute, identify themselves as AI, and may only place outbound calls to people who consented, between 8am and 9pm.
