Mayhew-Wood Plat
Walkable and connected
Median $372K·Walkability 6.7/10·Schools 3.6/10
Mayhew-Wood Plat sits within Alger Heights, where your daily errands look nothing like they do in car-dependent sprawl—the grocery is a three-minute walk, restaurants cluster within a mile (36 of them), and a transit stop is literally steps away. Homes here run around $321K on lots averaging a sixth of an acre, which means you're living densely but not cramped, in a plat where the architecture runs to bungalows and cottages from the 1920s–1950s. Downtown Grand Rapids is 10 minutes by car; the airport, 17. Grand Rapids Public Schools serves the area, and a park is a three-minute walk. What makes this work is the neighborhood itself—a one-square-mile pocket where walkability to dining hits 8/10, transit is perfect at 10/10, and 42 grocers sit within two miles. You're choosing density with a small-town pulse, not paying for it.
