    What I like about Grandville is that it is a very neat place of abode. It has a variety of shopping complex and you got a lot of choices to make from wherever you go. The public service is unique, like the transportation services. Which is very affordable to it's residents. The transportation is special, because it goes and passes across a lot of places that bikes may not like to reach. The recreational services at Grandville is also a unique feature, because they are some parks that provide ice-cream and free books for kids. It is a lovely experience!!! The weather at Grandville is also outstanding. Most times it is sunny and later it rains, which cools the atmosphere that makes it habitable.

    Great city! Lots of great festivals and a homey, welcoming atmosphere. It's a safe area filled with great people.
    There are so many things to do and places to eat. You will never run out of places to go! There are several grocery stores, dog parks, and great apartments to choose from that are not too expensive for being so close to Grand Rapids.
