Eppingtown
Solid value in a growing area
Median $215K·Walkability 5.0/10·Schools 4.1/10
You're right in the thick of things here—the subdivision spreads across 68 acres with modest lots (averaging a sixth of an acre) that keep everything compact and walkable, and a grocery is just a four-minute walk away when you need it. Downtown Grand Rapids is less than nine minutes by car, which means you're close enough to catch shows and restaurants without feeling like you're living in the noise of it; the airport is about twenty minutes out if you're traveling. Godwin Heights Public Schools serves the area, and you've got seven parks within a mile, including Hillcroft Park just a short walk off—the kind of green space that makes a subdivision feel less like a subdivision. There are thirty-six restaurants and groceries clustered nearby, a coffee shop ten minutes on foot, and transit stops right there if you need them. Homes here run around $238K, so it's the kind of place where you can actually afford to be close to the action without the premium price tag.

Crime in Eppingtown 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 Eppingtown home (around $215,000) at today's 6.49% 30-year fixed rate with 20% down, you'd need roughly $38k/year in household income to qualify — an estimated monthly payment of $1,430 (principal, interest, property tax est., and insurance).
| Down payment | Monthly payment | Income needed |
|---|---|---|
| 20% | $1,430/mo | $38,134 |
| 10% (+PMI) | $1,646/mo | $43,904 |
| 5% (+PMI) | $1,719/mo | $45,834 |
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.
