Strong schools draw families here
Median $410K·Walkability 2.6/10·Schools 7.9/10
You pull onto a street lined with modest single-family homes on tight, manicured lots, the kind of place where every driveway has a basketball hoop or a tidy garden bed. Hovinga-Root Plat is a 12-acre subdivision with an unpretentious feel—homes sit on roughly 0.30-acre lots, so you're close to your neighbors but far enough that you've still got a yard. Median prices hover around $588K, and you're zoned for Jenison Public Schools. Downtown Grand Rapids is about 20 minutes away when you need it, but most days you won't—there are 48 restaurants within a mile, a grocery under a mile out, and three parks within walking distance. It's the kind of neighborhood where things just work: suburban density without feeling cramped, convenience without sacrificing space.
