Every Friday night my wife and I drive into Peterboro for supper and always try to hit a different place each week. Last night we went to Montanas, and as always it was a fun night.
I also have to go into town whenever I need stuff that's not available locally.
Never yet been mugged, accosted, bothered, robbed, beaten, had my truck broken into or otherwise had our night ruined.
I've been in alot of cities on both sides of the Atlantic from Trinidad to Scandanavia and would put the saftey of Peterboro right up there with the best of them.
EVERY city in the world has bad areas and if you go there, you could find trouble, and if you avoid them, you'll probably have a good time.
Some of our closest friends have lived in Peterboro their entire lives and NONE of them have ever had a problem.
