Little Lima

Little Perú is a Peruvian enclave in Downtown Paterson, New Jersey, United States. New Jersey's Peruvian population continues to grow in its urban areas, especially in Paterson, which is considered by many to be the capital of the Peruvian Diaspora in the United States.East Newark has the largest Peruvian percentage in the country per capita, although the borough itself has a total population of 2,377 as of the United States 2000 Census. New Jersey is home to one of the largest Peruvian American populations of any US state.

Little Perú is bounded to the west by Spruce Street, to the north by McBride Avenue, to the east by Cianci Street, and to the south by Ward and Oliver Streets. The main road through Little Lima is Market Street. Little Perú is close to Paterson's Little Italy and to the Mexican, Dominican, and Puerto Rican neighborhoods on Main Street, as well as the nearby Great Falls on the Passaic River. Peruvian bodegas, bakeries, groceries, and restaurants line this busy section of Market Street. Little Perú is home to the Great Peruvian Festival and the Peruvian Parade, held in the summer. Little Perú is in the heart of Paterson's first neighborhood, Dublin. The Dublin District, as it was originally known, went from a mostly Irish American neighborhood to an Italian American neighborhood in Little Italy's heyday; however, the Dublin District and specifically Little Perú have since evolved into a predominantly Hispanic neighborhood, with many Peruvian and Bolivian citizens.
