Median $275K·Walkability 4.8/10·Schools 4.7/10
You've got your daily errands handled within a couple of steps—coffee and a meal are basically right there, and the grocery store's a quick two-minute walk. Edgewood sits across 33 acres with lots averaging nearly an acre each, so there's real breathing room between homes; median values hover around $410K. The Newaygo Public School District serves the area, and while downtown Grand Rapids is about 51 minutes away when you need it, dining options cluster nearby with seven restaurants within a mile. There's an unnamed park less than a mile off, and the subdivision's part of the larger Outaway Dr Area in West Michigan—close enough to conveniences, far enough out that you actually feel the land around you.

Estimates use a 6.43% 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 an APR or a commitment to lend — your actual rate and payment will vary.
