Brittney Estates
Surrounded by nature
Median $313K·Walkability 5.0/10·Schools 6.5/10
The homes here sit on quiet roads where corner lots and end-lot positions feel intentional—spaces carved out for people who want breathing room without sacrificing proximity to schools. Ranch-style houses dominate the area, many built in the early 2000s with open floor plans, daylight basements, and decks overlooking backyards that face undeveloped land to the north. Cathedral ceilings and vaulted spaces catch light through updated kitchens; main-floor laundry and primary bedrooms are standard. The neighborhood has that "refreshed but not overdone" character of modest, meticulously maintained properties.

Crime in Brittney Estates is reported at the city level, not the neighborhood level. The FBI doesn't publish reliable crime rates for individual neighborhoods, and within any community crime varies street to street. For an accurate, comparable picture, see the jurisdiction-wide figures for Barry County.
Barry County crime & safety stats →To buy a median-priced Brittney Estates home (around $313,200) at today's 6.43% 30-year fixed rate with 20% down, you'd need roughly $55k/year in household income to qualify — an estimated monthly payment of $2,073 (principal, interest, property tax est., and insurance).
| Down payment | Monthly payment | Income needed |

Estimates use a 6.43% 30-year fixed rate (current Freddie Mac average), an aggressive ~45% housing-to-income ratio (roughly what FHA underwriting can allow for a buyer with no other monthly debts — your number depends on your debts and credit), this area's median sale price, plus estimated insurance and PMI below 20% down. Not an APR or a commitment to lend — your actual rate and payment will vary.
