Wyoming is an economically diverse city with revenue derived from manufacturing, retail, education, health, transportation warehousing, industrial machinery and auto parts production. There has been a downturn in retail over the years as neighboring Grandville developed the Rivertown Crossings Mall. The development in Granville resulted in the exodus of commercial and retail shops to the Granville area, leaving Wyoming stripped of retail activity.
