Beautiful parks, good roads, and  here.

In addition to these attributes, the City tax rate is among the lowest in the State for a city over 20,000 in population.   Kentwood has an eclectic selection of commercial buildings with outstanding infrastructure, major interstate highways surrounding our borders, and an international airport is at our main entry.
