 Located on the banks of the Grand River, Grand Rapids is rated among the top cities in the U.S., and combines sophisticated charm with midwestern friendliness. Known for being safe and clean, Grand Rapids is a “walking” city.
Part of Michigan's West Coast, Grand Rapids offers all the big-city excitement you expect from a million-resident metropolis like a bustling downtown featuring more than 60 restaurants, bars, theaters, museums and sports venues within a five-minute walk.
Yet for all its sophistication, the city prides itself on such small-town virtues as friendly people, safe streets, minimal traffic and good old-fashioned Midwest value.
Michigan's West Coast is blessed with abundant natural wonders, from the lush green valleys of the Grand River Basin to the sugar-sand beaches of Lake Michigan. It's an ideal destination for golfing, swimming, fishing, boating, biking and sightseeing--and everything is close by!
