Walkability 4.0/10·Schools 8.4/10
...and that's really what makes Spaulding Avenue Office Park work so well for people who actually want to get things done. It's 11 acres of condo space in the Apple Plat Area, positioned just 14 minutes from downtown Grand Rapids and about the same from Gerald R. Ford Airport—so whether you're commuting or catching a flight, you're not spending your life in the car. The neighborhood has solid bones: a dozen restaurants within walking distance, grocery stores and coffee within a couple miles, and Forest Hills Park just under a mile away when you need some green space. Walk to dinner takes maybe 9 minutes; the grocery store, 11. It's the kind of setup where you can actually run errands on foot without it becoming a whole expedition. Homes here run in the mid-range for the area, and because it's Forest Hills Public Schools, the school district draws a fairly stable crowd. Nothing flashy—just a straightforward place where the location does the heavy lifting. You're close enough to the city to feel connected, far enough out that you've got room to breathe.
