Lilac Acres
Solid value in a growing area
Median $305K·Walkability 5.3/10·Schools 4.1/10
Lilac Acres is a 16-acre subdivision where modest lots—averaging just under a quarter acre—pack a lot of access into a small footprint. You're steps from transit, within walking distance of Jackson Park and a restaurant, and closer to downtown Grand Rapids (10 minutes by car) than you'd expect from a quiet residential block. The median home here sits around $260K, and the density means you're not isolated—there are six parks within a mile and 66 restaurants within the same radius, so you're living in the Gladiola Gardens Area but wired into real neighborhood infrastructure. Schools feed into Wyoming Public Schools, and the real draw is simple: you get suburban housing stock with urban proximity and amenities, minus the sprawl.
