About this map

Englishville and Comstock Park anchor this portion of Kent County, situated where the Grand River meets its tributaries in a landscape defined by significant water systems and early-21st-century residential growth. The geography is punctuated by numerous small lakes, including Little Pine Island Lake, Scott Lake, and Mead Lake, which sit amidst a network of golf courses such as Alpine Golf Course and English Hills Golf Course.

Genealogists will find a high density of burial sites across the township, from the Englishville Cemetery in the north to the Veterans Cemetery and Fair Plains Cemetery in the south. The drainage patterns of Indian Mill Creek, York Creek, and Mill Creek converge toward the river valley, illustrating the natural contours that shaped the development of communities like Ballards Corners and Wilder Center north of Grand Rapids.
