Byron Center

Community Overview

Tucked in the southwest corner of Kent County, Byron Center boasts a quaint downtown, a bevy of parks, fantastic schools, and the recently built Tanger Outlet Mall. Spend the sunny days playing golf at Railside, eating scoops of ice cream at Houseman’s, and picking up a few prime pieces for your grill at Byron Center Meats. Hop on your bike and head up the Kent Trails – they can take you all the way to downtown Grand Rapids! Many of the houses were built from the ‘90s through today and are large with spacious yards. Byron Center schools are near the best in the Grand Rapids Area, which is why the township has grown tremendously in the last two decades.
