Broadview Gardens No 4

You're looking at a subdivision where the lots run tight—a third of an acre each—which means you'll know your street pretty well and the drive to downtown Grand Rapids is a manageable 19 minutes. Groceries and a restaurant are both within walking distance if you don't mind a six-minute stroll, and there are a handful of parks scattered within a mile, though you'll want to drive if you're serious about getting into nature. It's the kind of place that works if you're content with car-dependent errands and proximity to the city without actually being in it.
