East Highland Park Sub No 1
Lake life, small town feel
Median $575K·Walkability 4.4/10·Schools 5.5/10
Late afternoon light hits these brick Craftsman homes just right, warming up the whole neighborhood as the day winds down. The lots are compact—think quarter-acre parcels—so everything feels walkable and intimate, and you've got twenty restaurants within a mile if you're not in the mood to cook. Duncan Park is a five-minute stroll away, and there are ten parks scattered around the immediate area, which beats out the usual suburban sprawl situation. Close enough to Grand Haven beach for a quick escape (under four minutes), but far enough from downtown Grand Rapids that you're not fighting commute traffic every morning.
