    "Perry is a safe place to raise kids. There is no public transit. There are a lot of new new emerging shops. There is plenty of work for it being a small town!"
  • Jacob B.
    "I think they would like the park trails and dog park that are available here. Both areas provide great space for dogs "
  • Amber M.
    "The best thing I can say is it's close to the elementary school. I know a couple of neighbors. Sadly no one else on my block really gets into the holidays but that's fine"
