Salvisberg Sub.
Urban energy, solid value
Median $244K·Walkability 7.3/10·Schools 4.7/10
...so what you've got here is a two-acre pocket of Highland Park where homes run around $244K and the lots average about a fifth of an acre—tight but not cramped, the kind of footprint that keeps you close to everything without feeling stacked. A grocery is a five-minute walk, restaurants are three minutes away, and there's a transit stop basically at your doorstep, which means you're not beholden to the car even though downtown Grand Rapids is just seven minutes by road.
