Debt-to-Income Ratios for Wyoming Residents

Debt-to-income (DTI) ratio is one of the most critical factors lenders evaluate. For Wyoming, with a median household income of $65,204 (approximately $5,434/month), understanding your DTI is key to qualifying for mortgages, auto loans, and personal loans.

Wyoming's median income is above the national average, buoyed by the energy sector, tourism around Yellowstone and Jackson Hole, and a lack of state income tax. Jackson Hole's ultra-wealthy population significantly skews average income figures.

Wyoming DTI Benchmarks

• Front-end DTI (housing only): Wyoming's average mortgage DTI is 31%. Lenders typically want this below 28–31%.
• Back-end DTI (all debts): Most conventional lenders cap this at 43–50%. With Wyoming's average debts totaling $81,000, managing all obligations within this range requires careful budgeting.
• Average credit card payment: Approximately 105 monthly minimum on the state average balance
• Average auto payment: Approximately $400/month on a 60-month term

Most of Wyoming maintains very affordable housing relative to incomes, though Jackson Hole has some of the highest home price-to-income ratios in the entire country. Excluding the resort area, the state's mortgage DTI ratios are comfortably below 36%.

Improving Your DTI in Wyoming

To lower your DTI ratio: pay down revolving debt (especially credit cards at $5,237 average), avoid taking on new loans before major applications, and consider whether additional income sources could improve your qualifying ratios. Wyoming posts above-average credit scores, consistent with its Mountain West peers. The state's energy sector provides high wages in the boom phase, and a small, stable population with conservative financial habits supports strong credit management.
