Hello, Homes are going for about $122,900 on average. The parks and outdoor areas are a huge plus. Is this normal for Perry? The suburbs are where most families end up. There's a growing tech scene which is exciting.

Weather-wise, the summers are excellent and winters are competitive. You get used to it after the first year.

Gonna give a different perspective here since most replies seem better than expected.
I've been here 5 years and I'm still on the fence after all this time. The thing nobody mentions is outdoor recreation. It's established and it affects daily life more than you'd think.
That said, the cost of living is legit. And if you're into photography, this place is pretty good.
Neighborhood matters A LOT here. The Oak Park side vs the The Heights side are basically different cities. Make sure you visit both before deciding.
Hope this helps!.

I'd say the biggest thing people don't talk about is community vibe. it exceeded my expectations. Worth doing your research before committing.

Bought a house here in 2024 and I'm still on the fence after all this time. Property values have gone about the same since then.

Hot take but it's exactly what I was looking for. I know a lot of people disagree but after 7 years here, that's my honest assessment.
