FactVote averages the four quarterly, not-seasonally-adjusted FHFA all-transactions HPI observations for each year. It compares that series with BEA annual per-capita personal income distributed by FRED, then rebases both to 100 in 2016. This is a pressure indicator, not a home-price-to-income ratio and not a measure of monthly mortgage affordability. Both series are nominal; neither is adjusted for inflation. Per-capita personal income includes earnings, property income, and transfers and is not median household income. Annual observations use December 31; monthly observations use the first of the month. Lines connect consecutive readings and do not supply values between them. Missing observations break the lines.

The timeline combines the corresponding national fact’s reviewed event catalog, labeled National context, with individually reviewed state milestones. State events use primary sources and distinguish signing, effective and filing dates. Each milestone keeps its source-check date, geographical limits and evidence limits. This curated selection is not a complete history.
Date ranges affect events and actions. Action type, status and official-name search affect government records only. Events remain separate from action counts. An event after the latest observation extends context without creating a new reading.

All 50 states are listed, including states without a comparable observation. Ranks use stored source precision; displayed values may round to the same number.
Median monthly gross rent for renter-occupied housing units paying cash rent, including contract rent plus estimated average utility and fuel costs paid by the renter.
This source snapshot keeps its own definition and period. A rank shown elsewhere applies only to that comparison’s measure and period.
Method and limitations
U.S. Census Bureau QuickFacts, sourced from the American Community Survey 2020–2024 five-year estimate and expressed in 2024 dollars.
This is a multi-year statewide estimate, not a current asking-rent measure.
The median obscures differences by location, unit size, housing quality, and renter circumstances.
Compare moderate-or-severe and severe housing cost burdens for three distinct housing groups.

Feb 8, 2021 · Issued · Preparation only
Gov. Mark Gordon · Issued
FactVote reviewed summary
Gov. Mark Gordon issued Executive Order 2021-02 on February 8, 2021. It assigned Family Services planning, coordination and contracting responsibilities to prepare for federal rent and utility assistance pending enabling legislation. It allowed preparatory administrative spending but expressly stopped short of beginning household relief payments. It was to remain in effect until rescinded or superseded by state enabling legislation; continuing operation or later payments are not established here.
Signed 2021-02-08. See original for timing and duration.
Why this record is included
Census gross rent combines contract rent with applicable tenant-paid utilities. Preparation for assistance concerns households paying those costs, but does not set contract rent or establish a change in median gross rent. The order itself stopped short of household relief payments. This relationship does not establish causation. Actions after the measurement period cannot explain its earlier value.
Retained Wyoming evidence context: Median gross rent. This record’s connection to the topic does not establish an effect on the measured result.
I, Mark Gordon, Governor of the State of Wyoming, do hereby assign to the Department of Family Services the following temporary responsibilities necessary to prepare to administer the federal Emergency Rental Assistance Program upon the enactment of enabling legislation:
[…]
f. Engage in any other activities necessary to prepare for administration of the federal Emergency Rental Assistance Program short of beginning administration of relief payments to eligible households under the program;
Records come from published fact relationships or reviewed topic records with official supporting evidence and verified Wyoming officeholder attribution. Historical executive officials require evidence tied to the action date and are excluded from incumbent proposals. Inclusion follows an explicit topic review, a related state fact, or the action’s title and supporting evidence. Explicit topic reviews take priority; repeated actions use the most recent explicit review for this topic. Duplicate actions attached to several facts appear once. This topic match is not a new finding that an action caused a result, and the reviewed collection is selective. Collection reviewed Sep 11, 2026.

Government-published candidate material
The government’s creation of programs like Secure Rural Schools and Payment in Lieu of Taxes is a recognition that the federal holding of such vast amounts of western lands disadvantages states and municipalities. There are communities in Wyoming and other western states struggling to grow and benefit from new economic opportunities because no land is available for private development or housing, with even the most benign local request (such as seeking approval to clear power line rights-of-way to prevent the sparking of forest fires) taking over three decades. National parks and wildlife refuges also suffer under colossal maintenance backlogs in the billions of dollars.
Statement date not recorded · Profile reviewed Sep 17, 2026
This section matches specific housing, rent, homeownership and borrowing costs terms in retained, attributed source text from published Wyoming candidate profiles. A profile heading or biography alone does not qualify. The Florida geography is fixed; saved state preferences cannot change these results. A mention can concern a community or group rather than Florida’s statewide measure.
Matching is automatic and does not establish a candidate’s stance, the accuracy of a claim, or an effect on the measured result. Results are grouped by recorded race, then by candidate name. Within each candidate, the matching issue mentions appear first. Only candidates with matching retained statements are shown; this is not a complete race roster. Repeated identical text for the same candidate is shown once. Coverage follows the existing state profiles and is not a complete record of all candidates or everything they have said. Review dates are not statement dates.

No retained proposals match these filters. A missing record does not mean an incumbent has taken no action.
What sponsorship and proposal counts tell us
Only current Wyoming officeholders retained in the reviewed collection qualify. Bills require a recorded primary sponsorship; cosponsors and signing officials are excluded from sponsorship counts. An official introducer recorded as acting by request is labeled “Introduced by request”; that procedural role does not establish personal policy endorsement. Governor and agency records qualify when recorded as proposed. A separately verified governor transmittal can also establish an original proposal whose latest status reflects its later outcome. Signing an enacted law alone does not establish a proposal. A record appearing under several facts is counted once per officeholder. A bill with multiple primary sponsors appears under each recorded sponsor.
Enacted bills, adopted resolutions and unsuccessful measures remain visible as proposal history. Passing one chamber is not enactment. These counts do not measure effectiveness or prove that an action changed a Wyoming statistic. Collection reviewed Sep 11, 2026.
Sources & methods
Every section retains its primary sources, units, reporting periods and comparison limits. Maps, graphs and tables use the same observation and cohort. All 50 states are listed; D.C. and territories are excluded. Missing and suppressed values remain unavailable and never become zero.
#1 is the highest measured value. Equal source values share a rank and leave gaps (1, 2, 2, 4). Ranks use source precision and are descriptive, not a score of the state. Survey uncertainty and reporting coverage can limit comparisons. Published U.S. benchmarks are used where available; a state average is not substituted.
Wyoming snapshots and fiscal sources keep their own dates and accounting scope. National events and federal distribution explainers describe national context. Actions and statements are filtered to Wyoming, retain their reviewed evidence, and do not establish that a policy caused a measured change.
