3 Reviews & Comments About Lapeer
If you visit Lapeer you would notice a vibrant, growing, beautiful city. I have lived in Lapeer my entire 47 years, and I have never been a victim of a crime.
Lapeer city itself is absolutely a perfect place to raise a family. I don't know why I let these idiotic biops make me mad, but this one hits home, literally.
I live in Lapeer and it's a nice place to live!
There's a vibrant, growing, beautiful city. I have lived in Lapeer my entire 47 years, and I have never been a victim of a crime. In addition to that, they may be grouping the county in with their "facts" on crime and unemployment. It is true that Lapeer County has a higher unemployment rate, but the county is made up of numerous rural communities. Lapeer city itself is absolutely a perfect place to raise a family.
