The town's history is also preserved with the annual Peach Festival, one of several family-friendly activities. “Wyoming is super wholesome,” says Lydia Ragonese, a Realtor with Compass who also grew up in Wyoming. “It’s got places to pick your own fruit, there’s an ice cream parlor and a small farmers market during the summer.” Aside from fresh fruit and locally owned businesses, residents have easy access to U.S. Route 13 and the Dover Air Force Base, about 6 miles east.
