Heys West Norwalk
Solid value in a growing area
Median $546K·Walkability 5.9/10·Schools 3.3/10
Heys West Norwalk sits on three acres in the Millbrook area, where mature trees and winding roads keep the feel residential and low-traffic, and a transit stop is right there if you need it—though most days you're driving the 13 or 14 minutes into downtown Grand Rapids or out to the airport. Homes run around $546K on lots averaging nearly half an acre, which gives you some breathing room without the sprawl. There's a grocery within a nine-minute walk and about 84 restaurants within a mile, so you're not isolated, but you're also not crammed into dense walkability; the neighborhood scores modest on errands and dining on foot, better on fitness amenities. Oxford Park sits an 11-minute walk away, and Forest Hills Public Schools serves the area—a solid mid-Michigan subdivision where you get a little land, easy freeway access, and enough nearby shops and restaurants to not feel stranded.
