Leroy, IN

Leroy is an unincorporated community in Winfield Township, Lake County, Indiana. The town was founded on December 11, 1875, by Thomas McClarn. The town sign at the intersection of U.S. 231 and Elkhart Street describes Leroy as "One of Lake County's First Irish Settlements". That mix gives Leroy a clear local shape within Indiana, with older layers still visible in current places. The local scoop is a place whose streets, landmarks, and institutions keep its earlier story close to the present. Leroy has a United States Postal Service office.
