If you're heading out to Independence, know that you're looking at about twenty-five minutes to downtown Grand Rapids—close enough to feel connected, far enough to breathe. The community sits on two acres in Hinman's Add. Area, a modest condo development where the median home runs around $398K. What makes it work is the location: eighteen restaurants within a mile, eight parks tucked nearby, and the closest one—Lamoreaux Park—is just a five-minute walk away. A grocery store is within a reasonable walk too, and if water calls you, Camp Lake Launch is less than three miles south.
