This is the kind of place where you can sip your morning coffee on a covered patio while looking out over half an acre of your own land, with nothing but peaceful quiet around you. The pace here moves slower than the city — and that's exactly the point. With only three homes selling in the past year, this isn't a neighborhood where houses flip constantly; when people find their spot here, they tend to stay put and put down real roots.

Crime in Koon Creek 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 Montague.

Montague crime & safety stats →

To buy a median-priced Koon Creek home (around $250,000) at today's 6.65% 30-year fixed rate with 20% down, you'd need roughly $45k/year in household income to qualify — an estimated monthly payment of $1,684 (principal, interest, property tax est., and insurance).

Down paymentMonthly paymentIncome needed
20% $1,684/mo$44,905
10% (+PMI)$1,938/mo$51,685
5% (+PMI)$2,024/mo$53,963

Estimates use a 6.65% 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.
