Edisons Green Bluffs
Walkable and connected
Walkability 6.3/10·Schools 6.0/10
The bluffs themselves—that's what stops you mid-sentence when you're showing someone around. They're the reason the place has a name, and they're right there, defining the whole feel of things. It's a ten-acre pocket sitting in the Miller Addition area, close enough to downtown Grand Rapids that you're downtown in under eight minutes, but far enough removed that you don't feel it. There's a park three minutes on foot, and honestly, restaurants are basically your neighbors—168 within a mile means you're never wondering where to eat.
