Cascadia Dells No.1
Great schools with outdoor access
Median $570K·Walkability 2.2/10·Schools 8.6/10
Early evening light hits the brick and stone fronts best—that's when you notice how the 24-acre layout lets homes breathe on half-acre lots without feeling remote. You're about a mile and a quarter from groceries and restaurants, which means a quick drive rather than a walk, but close enough that you're not commuting just to eat. Forest Hills Public Schools serves the area, and homes here run around $487K. The real draw lands at the end: Hidden Lake sits just a tenth of a mile away, and Cascade Community Association Park is an eight-minute walk, part of three parks within a mile. That combination—space, water access, and outdoor amenities without urban density—is what keeps people rooted here. Downtown Grand Rapids is 10 minutes away when you need it.

Estimates use a 6.49% 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 a commitment to lend, and not an APR — your actual rate and payment will vary.
