Lapeer is a city in the U.S. state of Michigan and is the county seat of Lapeer County. As of the 2010 census, the city population was 8,841. Most of the city was incorporated from land that was formerly in Lapeer Township, though portions were also annexed from Mayfield Township and Elba Township. The city government is politically independent of all three townships. Lapeer is in southern Michigan, east of Flint, on the Flint River. The name "Lapeer" is a corruption of the French la pierre, which means "the rock", a reference to flint.
Downtown Lapeer is beautifully historic. Established in 1831, Lapeer is proud to showcase the downtown area with its mix of historic sites like the Lapeer County Courthouse and Pix Theatre, along with unique retail shops, interesting wares, and casual or fine dining. Newly open in downtown is the Gallery 194 that houses two galleries, a gift shop and coffee shop. Another favorite in downtown is the Farmers Market Pavilion, open May through October.
