Jenison

Community Overview

Nestled just off 196, Jenison is a bedroom community that takes pride in its school system, especially its award-winning marching band and its newer Fine Arts Center. With a multitude of reasonably priced homes built in the ‘60s and ‘70s and lower Georgetown Township property taxes, Jenison is one of the most affordable places to live in the greater Grand Rapids area. Several parks (8th Ave, Maplewood, Rosewood) have undergone recent renovations and are a great place to play. Come for the Memorial Day Parade, stay for the fantastic theatrical performances!
