Workmans Add.
Solid value in a growing area
Median $228K·Walkability 5.6/10·Schools 4.0/10
Workmans Add. is five acres of modest grid, where the lots are small enough that you could practically throw a stone to your neighbor's porch—and honestly, that's the whole point. Homes run around $228K, and they're arranged so tightly that walking to a restaurant takes about eight minutes, which beats driving. The nearest transit stop is steps away, and downtown Grand Rapids sits just under nine minutes by car, so the subdivision trades sprawl for proximity without pretense.
