Walkable and connected
Median $256K·Walkability 6.7/10·Schools 4.1/10
...—so you've got four acres of brick homes built when people still knew how to proportion a front porch, sitting just south of Wealthy Street in Baxter. The lots run small by modern standards, about a tenth of an acre each, but that's the trade-off when you're six minutes from downtown Grand Rapids and a grocery is a five-minute walk away. Median home value hovers around $220K.
