Bill, Wyoming, is a tiny unincorporated town in Converse County, about 35 miles north of Douglas.

Although it only has 11 full-time residents, it's home to an all-night diner and a hotel that serves the local railroad and mining industry.

It was named by the wife of a local doctor who noticed that many men in the area were named "Bill".

The town also became known for its gift shop, which was joking called the "Bill Yacht Club".

Bill gained more acclaim when it was honored by the Colorado -based Cowboy Dave Band. The country-western act regularly performs the song "Bill, Wyoming" at concerts across the region.
