Peru is a residential and agricultural community of 6,800 residents in northeastern New York, approximately 75 miles south of Montreal, Canada, overlooking beautiful Lake Champlain and the magnificent Adirondack Park. The Olympic Village Lake Placid is only a 50-minute drive to the south. Peru's residents appreciate their community's excellent broadband coverage, a regional food market, bank, credit union, pharmacy, insurance agencies, hardware stores, farmer's markets, library, bakeries, gift shops, excellent restaurants, convenience stores, and locally owned businesses. The Peru Central School is why many young families reside in our community. One of the three largest school districts in the region, the district has an excellent reputation for education quality, program depth, and sports offerings.
