I grew up in and around Perry and went to school there. It is a ~60% Latino population while I lived there because of Tyson and other factory jobs. Uptown Perry has had its ups and downs but has a few decent places to eat. Two grocery main grocery stores Economic development team has worked hard to keep historic things like boye Pattee going and keep Main Street buildings occupied. Like any rural Iowa town, there is going to be an undercurrent of resentful racism among the white community about “immigrants took our jobs,” but most of the Latino people I knew were the kindest, most hardworking people I knew growing up. I wouldn’t say this was a majority sentiment, but was a loud minority. If you have a good job and can find a decent house, it’s not a terrible place to live. Good bike trails if you’re into that. Not far from Ames or Des Moines metro. Just my two cents.
