Why Live in Northside

Northside in Kalamazoo, Michigan, has a rich history rooted in early 20th-century industry and African American migration from the South. This neighborhood, once redlined in 1937, continues to evolve with a mix of historical and modern elements. The area still hosts significant industrial activity, including a large paper mill by Graphic Packaging International and the city's water filtration plant. Public transportation is accessible with three Metro Bus routes and nearby Amtrak and Greyhound stations. Housing in Northside predominantly features Craftsman, American Foursquare, and bungalow styles, with most homes built between the 1880s and 1940s. Business growth is evident near downtown, with notable spots like Louie’s Trophy House, Green Door Distillery, Park Street Market, and Cookie’s Creole N’ Soul. Recreational options include LaCrone Park, which offers a playground, splash pad, basketball courts, and picnic areas, and the Kalamazoo River Valley Trail. However, Verburg Park is currently closed for environmental cleanup until 2025. The neighborhood's schools offer a range of educational opportunities, with students benefiting from The Kalamazoo Promise, which covers full tuition at over 60 Michigan universities, colleges, and trade schools. Community organizations like the Douglass Community Association and the Northside Association of Community Development play vital roles in supporting residents.
