Southern Hills
Lake life, small town feel
Median $398K·Walkability 4.7/10·Schools 5.5/10
Lined with maples and brick colonials on trim lots, Southern Hills sits in the East Highland Park area where you're close enough to Duncan Park for a regular walk but far enough from downtown Grand Rapids (about 47 minutes) that you're genuinely out of the noise. The 29-acre subdivision runs to modest quarter-acre parcels—nothing sprawling, nothing cramped—and homes here run around $748K. You've got 84 restaurants within a mile, a coffee shop a 9-minute walk away, and the Grand Haven beach is just 4.6 minutes down the road if you're the type to catch a sunset on a weeknight. Grand Haven Area Public Schools serves the area, and the bones of the place are solid: good bones, good bones everywhere, honestly, which is the whole thing about subdivisions like this one.
