Clarke'S Add

Peach Ridge Avenue runs quiet here, lined with modest homes on tight lots that make the most of thirty-some acres in what amounts to classic West Michigan subdivision logic—you get your own place, nothing fancy, nothing cramped either. There's a park a short walk away if you've got kids or a dog, and downtown Grand Rapids is a half hour south when you need it. Homes run around $233K, which is the kind of number that lets you actually think about other things besides the mortgage. Kent City Community Schools handles the schools. This is the kind of place you end up choosing because it works, not because it's trying to be something it isn't.
