Allendale Charter Township, located in Ottawa County, is a place of abundant natural beauty where rich history of the past meets the dynamic growth of the future. Allendale is a place of shared memories where people come together to live, work, and play. Allendale is conveniently located between the beautiful shores of Lake Michigan and the bustling city of Grand Rapids. We're one of the fastest growing townships in the region but continue to maintain the family-friendly, rural character that the community knows and loves.

Quality education is a big deal in Allendale and can be found in both public and private settings. Allendale Public Schools rank among the highest performing schools in the State of Michigan. Allendale schools have received an 8 out of 10 rating for academic excellence by GreatSchools.org, a national non-profit. A unique feature of our school systems is the ability to partner with schools and businesses throughout the Ottawa area to offer an innovative approach to learning.
