Median $599K·Walkability 5.4/10·Schools 8.7/10
Driving through Eaglecrest Meadows, you're on quiet cul-de-sacs where ranch-style condos sit on wooded lots overlooking small creeks and patches of open land. The community spans twenty-three acres just north of Leonard Street, tucked between easy highway access and the kind of suburban density that doesn't feel cramped—end units face into trees and water rather than parking lots. It's a ten-minute drive to downtown Grand Rapids and under nineteen minutes to Gerald R. Ford Airport, which means you're neither isolated nor sitting in rush-hour traffic to get anywhere. A grocery store is within a ten-minute walk, and over 170 restaurants and cafes are scattered within a mile, so errands and dinner don't require planning.

Crime in Eaglecrest Meadows 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 Eaglecrest Meadows home (around $599,000) at today's 6.49% 30-year fixed rate with 20% down, you'd need roughly $106k/year in household income to qualify — an estimated monthly payment of $3,984 (principal, interest, property tax est., and insurance).

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.
