Panfil'S Assessor'S Plat No.38
Walkable and connected
Walkability 6.9/10·Schools 4.2/10
What surprises people about living here is that you're a few steps from restaurants and a transit stop, yet surrounded by nearly three dozen parks within a mile—a density of green space that feels more suburb than city block. Panfil's Assessor's Plat sits squarely in John Ball Park, where the zoo anchors the neighborhood's identity and the Mines Golf Course sits perched above a historic gypsum mine. You're downtown Grand Rapids in two minutes by car, or you can walk to coffee in a couple of minutes and hit a dog park in three.
