Why Jenison's Location Is Its Biggest Asset

In a region where Holland buyers pay $419,000 median and Hudsonville buyers pay $532,000, Jenison's $361,000 median for a community that is 15 minutes from both cities represents genuine value. The I-196 corridor that runs through Jenison gives residents direct access to both the Holland lakeshore and Grand Rapids employment without committing to either city's premium pricing. For buyers who work in Grand Rapids but want proximity to Holland and Lake Michigan, Jenison solves the equation better than almost any other Ottawa County community.
