Scribner & Turner'S Second Add.
Walkable and connected
Median $225K·Walkability 6.6/10·Schools 4.2/10
What might surprise you out here is how much foot traffic there's to restaurants and coffee—the dining score edges close to what you'd find downtown, yet you're still in a residential stretch where the lots run nearly half an acre on average. Fish Ladder Park sits a five-minute walk away, and the immediate surroundings have a grocery and transit stop within steps, which makes errands manageable without needing a car for every errand, though the neighborhood itself leans more car-friendly overall. Downtown Grand Rapids is less than five minutes by car, so the distance isn't the draw—it's the breathing room and the 24 parks within walking distance that keep people here, along with 486 restaurants scattered across a mile radius, including taquerias, brewpubs, and longtime Polish spots that anchor the broader neighborhood character. The area sits about 23 minutes from Gerald R. Ford Airport, and if you're thinking about getting on the water, Butterworth Park boat launch is less than two miles away.
