About Peru
Tucked into the rolling farm country of southeast Kansas, Peru is a quiet, small-town community with a relaxed pace of life. Though its bustling oil boom and railroad days are in the past, the town offers plenty of open space and peaceful surroundings. Local kids attend Chautauqua County schools, with middle and high schoolers heading just down the road to Sedan. For anyone seeking simple country living, wide-open views, and quiet nights, Peru provides a restful place to settle down.
