Slater Heights
Walkable and connected
Median $279K·Walkability 6.2/10·Schools 6.0/10
Slater Heights is a 25-acre grid of modest lots—around a third of an acre each—anchored squarely in the Slater Heights Area, with downtown Grand Rapids about 14 minutes south and Gerald R. Ford Airport just 11 minutes west. Homes here run around $279K, which buys you proximity to 294 restaurants within a mile and a grocery store you can reach in two minutes on foot; the nearest coffee shop takes seven. Transit stops are steps away, and dining options cluster so densely that you'll trip over a taco stand or burger joint without trying—walkability for food and getting around is genuinely there, errands are workable but require a car. The subdivision sits in the Grand Rapids Public Schools zone, and Camelot Park lies about a mile north if you want trees and open space. The whole setup trades sprawl for access: tight footprints, plenty of restaurants, zero commute friction. It's unpretentious and functional, the kind of neighborhood where you don't have to plan a trip downtown—it's already there.
