Grand Rapids actually began as a furniture manufacturing center in the mid-19th century, but has since grown into a city with a diverse economy and plenty of fun things to do. Many local renters still work in the manufacturing sector, but the healthcare sector makes up a significant part of the economy, as well. Additionally, visiting art museums and galleries is a popular pastime for Grand Rapids renters. Namely, the Grand Rapids Art Museum and Frederik Meijer Gardens are both acclaimed places to see art. The Gerald Ford Presidential Museum is also located in Grand Rapids. The city also has a vibrant downtown area with delicious restaurants, as well as a large selection of craft breweries that local renters can explore. Many families also opt to rent in Grand Rapids due to its safe environment, reliable school system and plethora of fun things to do.

    Grand Rapids complements its cultural tapestry with a love for the outdoors.

    Renting in Grand Rapids, MI

    Grand Rapids is an affordable gem in the Midwest offering a great quality of life with relatively low rental prices. Notably, there are a wide range of rental options available here, so whether you're looking for a dense, urban neighborhood or an idyllic suburb, you'll be able to find it in Grand Rapids. That said, walkability varies by neighborhood: Areas closer to downtown are easy to navigate on foot, but homes get more spread out as you move further away from downtown. There has also been plenty of development in the downtown area in recent years, with many new high-rise and mid-rise apartment communities to choose from. There are also many historic neighborhoods just outside of downtown that offer charming single-family homes and low-rise apartment buildings. In particular, Heritage Hill is the most notable of these historic neighborhoods, and many rental properties here feature unique American architecture styles dating back to the 19th century. Renters throughout the city also have access to beautiful neighborhood parks and green spaces.
