Neighborhood

North Grand Rapids is the sprawling sector north of central Grand Rapids along Interstate 96. Although this portion of the city offers a suburban feel, there are abundant amenities within the area. State Route 37, also known as Alpine Avenue, is lined with restaurants, supermarkets, retailers, and local businesses. Along this route you’ll also find Wahfield Park, a spacious area with playgrounds, open fields, and miles of nature trails. Other outdoor amenities in this wooded community include Scott Lake Golf and Practice Center and Dwight Lydell Park, located near the Grand River and popular local restaurants and bars.

Although residents appreciate the small-town charm and peaceful atmosphere in North Grand Rapids, they are equally appreciative of the area’s proximity to Downtown Grand Rapids. From historic sites and well-known museums to riverfront greenways and abundant local hotspots for dining, drinking, and shopping, Downtown Grand Rapids is a buzzing neighborhood.

School data provided by The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
