Evergreen Valley has a variety of homes in a convenient location

Evergreen Valley is a suburban-style subdivision known for a variety of home styles. "I'd consider it the south side of town," says Matika Smith Fisher, an associate broker with Keller Williams First, who grew up in Flint. "Back in the day, this was the elite side of town, but a lot has changed as we've lost manufacturing jobs." The General Motors Flint Assembly plant is still in operation, and another notable job site is McLaren Flint hospital; both are about 7 miles away. "The neighborhood is conveniently located to major expressways," Fisher says. Interstate 69 runs north of Evergreen Valley and meets Interstate 475 a couple miles to the west.

Different home styles, mostly from the 1950s and '60s

The residential streets are concentrated south of Lapeer Road and east of Bagwell Street. Lots are evenly spaced, and driveways and detached garages are common. The streets have sidewalks, and trees are in front of most houses. "Homes are from the '50s to '60s, primarily. You've got ranches, colonials, tri- and bilevels… a lot of everything," Fisher says. Prices range from about $60,000 to $145,000.

MTA buses, Flint Station and Bishop International Airport

Flint's Mass Transit Authority (MTA) buses run in the neighborhood. The Lapeer Road route goes from the Northrup-Abrams Transportation Center to Meijer on Center Road in Burton. Stops include the Dort Financial Center and the Flint Station for MTA connecting buses, Indian Trails buses and Amtrak service. Bishop International Airport is about 9 miles to the southwest, with flights on United Airlines, American Airlines and Allegiant Air.

Retail and the Dort Financial Center north of Lapeer Road

North of Lapeer Road, there's a shopping center with a few stores, like Dollar Tree and Ashley Furniture, though others have been shuttered. "One highlight of Evergreen Valley is it's within walking distance of the Dort Financial Center," Fisher says. The sports and entertainment complex on Lapeer Road has a capacity of over 4,400 and hosts events like kids shows, comic cons and wrestling matches. It's home to the Flint Firebirds, a major junior ice hockey team in the Ontario Hockey League.A bit farther north, on the other side of I-69, shopping areas like Courtland Center have more businesses. There's a JCPenney and a Goodwill, as well as restaurants like El Cozumel Mexican Grill and Royal Sushi. An Aldi is also available in the area. B's Bowling Center has leagues like the Rum Bucket Bowling League, which advertises a fun and flexible experience with "no serious bowlers allowed."

Nearby Cook Park is a place for play and community events

North of I-69, Cook Park has a playground and basketball courts. Events held at the park have included Walk with a Doc, a free doctor-led walk for health, and a back-to-school supplies giveaway hosted by Little Miss Flint, a well-known activist and community fundraiser. In April 2025, the park was included in a tree planting initiative by Area 7 Rotary Clubs and the Flint River Watershed Coalition, wherein volunteers planted 1,000 trees across four city parks. Brennan Park, a couple of miles west of Evergreen Valley, hosts a popular gathering, the Southside Reunion, in August.

Events at the Flint Farmers Market downtown

Downtown, about 4 miles west, includes the Flint Farmers' Market, which is open on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays year-round. The market hosts the Flint Handmade Spring Craft Market in April, Pavillion Opening Day in May and the Christmas in July Night Market.

Enrollment in the Flint Community Schools district

Freeman Elementary School, serving kindergarten through sixth grade, earns a D-plus from Niche. Seventh through 12th grades are at Flint Southwestern Classical Academy, which receives a C and is an authorized International Baccalaureate World School. Flint Community Schools district's Schools of Choice program is available by application. Specialty schools include elementary and middle school STEM academies.

The water is no longer contaminated, but people still use filters

In 2014, it became known that the city's water was contaminated with lead. By 2018, the Environmental Protection Agency had deemed the water safe, though it's still recommended that a filter be used for all tap water for drinking.
