I have lived in Plainwell since 2005. My experience at the high school was very good. I have two younger siblings that also went through the school system and my parents felt the schools were great in meeting each of our needs. Now that I have children, I have seen from a parental perspective that the school system has continued to grow and help every student meet their potential and goals.
I love Plainwell. It's a small, quiet city in Michigan. It's the perfect distance from Grand Rapids and Kalamazoo. Prices for everything is pretty cheap.
I've lived here my whole life, so I can't exactly compare it to other places, but I love this town nonetheless. The scenery can be beautiful, and it's perfectly located between Grand Rapids and Kalamazoo. Very friendly community.
