About Dyer

Dyer is a Lake County town in northwest Indiana, close to the Illinois line and the Chicago metropolitan area. Permanent white settlement in the broader region began in the 1830s, and modern Dyer grew into a residential suburb with strong commuter ties. Public high school students attend schools in the Lake Central system, and the town's identity is mostly practical: neighborhoods, local parks, shopping, and quick access to both Chicago's south suburbs and the industrial towns of northwest Indiana.
