Lovely little community. Low house prices, close to wonderful lake Michigan beaches, and there are cute independent restaurants. Also, great beer selection!
Norton Shores is a safe area to live in! Police are always there when in need and are not out to get you. You never see police around, though they are always around. Few crimes are committed here. I'd like to say barely any because they're never on the news. The only concern is living close to Muskegon Heights, where there is a lot of violence.
I am a former resident of Norton Shores and still work in the community. Norton Shores is a beautiful place to raise a family with a short commute to most places, an amazing school district, close to the beach, and many parks for families to enjoy. To me Norton Shores is the ideal location to raise a family
