Why Live in Peru

Peru, Illinois, located 100 miles west of Chicago, is a small city with a population of about 10,000. Known for its mix of small industrial and retail businesses, major employers include the Peru Mall and Target. The city features a variety of home styles, from early 20th-century bungalows to modern ranch-style homes, with homes spending less time on the market than the national average. LaSalle-Peru Township High School is noted for its high rating, contributing to the appeal for families. Peru offers numerous attractions, including the Illinois River, which provides opportunities for boating and fishing, and 10 public parks with amenities like picnic shelters and trails. Starved Rock State Park and Buffalo Rock State Park are nearby, enhancing the outdoor experience. The Westclox Museum offers a glimpse into the city's industrial past. Community events such as the Lock 14 Kid’s Fishing Tournament and Music Under the Oaks concert series foster a strong sense of community. Despite the absence of public transportation, the city is well-connected via Illinois State Route 251 and Interstate 80, with the Illinois Valley Regional Airport serving charter flights. The crime rates in Peru are often below state and national averages, and the air quality is better than many other Illinois cities. While winters can be harsh, summers are mild, making it a balanced environment for residents.
