The western, river side of the Northview community runs down to the Grand River, five to eight miles northeast of downtown Grand Rapids. On paper the land is unincorporated Plainfield Charter Township carrying a Grand Rapids 49525 mailing address — both are accurate — but what ties this corner of Kent County together is Northview, the school-district community that gives the whole area its name. There's no published civic line for the west side; the Grand River forms the hard natural edge to the west and southwest, and the Plainfield Avenue NE corridor anchors the retail and dining to the east.
