East Grand Rapids
The former home of President Gerald R. Ford, East Grand Rapids is situated four miles east of downtown. It was recently named one of America's Top 10 Best Places to Live for Suburbanites and one of the 10 Great Cities to Raise Your Kids. While the main street, called Gaslight Village, exudes a certain charm with its boutique shops and restaurants, the city also has abundant parks and nature trails and is home to the magnificent all-sports Reeds Lake.
