There's a restaurant two minutes from your front door—and 54 of them within a mile, which pretty much sums up what makes this corner of Creston work. David E. Uhls Sub. sits on just an acre in one of Grand Rapids' most active neighborhoods, where Plainfield Avenue's steady stream of shops and joints keeps things interesting without feeling overwhelming. Homes here run around $167K, and you're six minutes from downtown, which beats a lot of the metro. Grand Rapids Public Schools serves the area, and Briggs Park is an 11-minute walk if you want trails and green space. The grocery store's a nine-minute walk, transit is nearby, and if you ever want to launch a boat, Comstock Riverside Park is less than half a mile away. It's the kind of location where you're plugged into the neighborhood's energy without needing to be right on the busiest stretch.
