It is no surprise that Wyoming is known for being one of the most patriotic states in the entire country.

What is Does Patriotism Really Mean?

Patriotism is defined as the quality of being patriotic; devotion to and vigorous support for one's country.

For the better part of the last decade, the Cowboy State has landed in the top 15% of all states for patriotism on numerous different websites.

A new study conducted by personal finance website, WalletHub, recently listed their annual list for the "Most Patriotic States in America (2025)" and once again the Equality State does exceptional.

WalletHub broke down the study by stating:

In order to determine where Americans have the most red, white and blue pride, WalletHub compared the states across 13 key indicators of patriotism. Our data set ranges from the state’s military enlistees and veterans to the share of adults who voted in the 2024 presidential election to AmeriCorps volunteers per capita.

Here are some of those keys metrics and how Wyoming ranked for each:

• 3rd – Veterans per 1,000 Civilian Adults
• 5th – Volunteer Hours per Resident
• 6th – AmeriCorps Volunteers per Capita
• 13th – Active-Duty Military Personnel per 100,000 Civilian Adults
• 14th – Overall Rank
• 15th – Volunteer Rate
• 16th – Average Number of Military Enlistees per 1,000 Civilian Adults
• 20th – Peace Corps Volunteers per Capita

Keep in mind that being genuinely patriotic goes far beyond just having the flag adorning your yard and/or vehicle. It is easy to say that your patriotic, but it's far more important to actually prove it with your actions.
