L.G. Mason and Co's Subdivision

Folks who land here tend to be practical sorts working their way up—median household income sits around $62K, and about 55% own their homes outright, which means they're serious about putting down roots in a place where a grocery run takes less than half a mile and a coffee's practically on your doorstep. The 3-acre subdivision sits squarely in Grand Rapids Public Schools territory, and while the schools run a bit below state average at 4.3 out of 10, the 22-minute commute keeps the work-life balance reasonable enough that people don't mind staying put. It's the kind of neighborhood where you know where everything is because everything's close by, and you don't ask too many questions about the flood plain since everyone here learned to live with it.
