Perris is a city located in Riverside County, California. It was established in the 1880s as a railway town and later became known for its agriculture industry. The city is situated within the San Jacinto Watershed and is home to Lake Perris, a reservoir created by the construction of the Perris Dam in 1973. The lake serves as a popular recreational destination for swimming, boating, and fishing. The hydrology of the area is also heavily influenced by the snowpack from nearby mountains, which provides significant surface flow to rivers and streams in the region. Agriculture remains an important industry in Perris, with crops including citrus, avocados, and grapes. The city also boasts a variety of recreational activities, including skydiving and hot air balloon rides.
