Comstock Heirs Sub
Solid value in a growing area
Median $295K·Walkability 6.1/10·Schools 4.8/10
Life in Comstock Heirs Sub means you're steps from a restaurant—any restaurant, really, given the 48 within a mile—yet close enough to Briggs Park for a quick walk when you need actual quiet. The subdivision itself spreads across 34 acres of traditional homes, mostly aluminum-sided and priced around $293K, anchored firmly in Creston, which sits just 6.8 minutes from downtown Grand Rapids. You're attending Grand Rapids Public Schools, with a grocery store a reasonable walk away and transit access five minutes on foot. The real kicker—and the reason some folks stay put—is Comstock Riverside Park Launch, barely a tenth of a mile away, which means you can actually keep a boat here without pretending you'll ever use it.

Crime in Comstock Heirs Sub 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 Kent County.
Kent County crime & safety stats →To buy a median-priced Comstock Heirs Sub home (around $295,000) at today's 6.49% 30-year fixed rate with 20% down, you'd need roughly $52k/year in household income to qualify — an estimated monthly payment of $1,962 (principal, interest, property tax est., and insurance).
| Down payment | Monthly payment | Income needed |

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.
