Deer Run Sub
Strong schools draw families here
Median $360K·Walkability 1.7/10·Schools 5.8/10
Deer Run Sub sits in the Forest Park area, a quiet corner of West Michigan where you're about 11 minutes from Grand Haven's beach and a straightforward 43 minutes to downtown Grand Rapids if you need the city. The subdivision itself is tight—average lots run just under a third of an acre—which means homes cluster together on modest land, and you're looking at around $433K for the median price. Grand Haven Area Public Schools handles the schools. There are a couple of parks within walking distance, though the nearest grocery and restaurant sit a few miles out, so you're definitely car-dependent for daily errands. It's the kind of place where you get genuine space without going full rural.

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.
