Shepard'S Addition
Walkable and connected
Median $232K·Walkability 6.7/10·Schools 4.2/10
You're walking or biking through a 57-acre subdivision where downtown is four minutes away and the nearest coffee shop is steps—literally steps—from your door, which tells you everything about the density and walkability here. Shepard's Addition sits inside John Ball Park, the west-side neighborhood anchored by the zoo and the Mines Golf Course, and the subdivision itself feels woven into that ecosystem: 19 parks within a mile, 336 restaurants scattered around, transit access that doesn't require planning. The lots are small—a tenth of an acre on average—which means you're close to your neighbors and closer still to Fulton Street's retail and dining corridor. Homes run around $212K, and you're hitting Grand Rapids Public Schools for your kids' education. It's the kind of place where you can actually live without a car as your primary appendage, though you'll have the airport in about 23 minutes if you need it.
