Ferry Heights Sub
Lake life, small town feel
Median $375K·Walkability 4.9/10·Schools 4.9/10
Golden hour hits this 33-acre subdivision hard—the afternoon light spills across those modest lots (averaging about a third of an acre each) and makes the whole place glow. You're in the Harbor Point Area, which means Grand Haven beach is less than five minutes away, but somehow this place still feels tucked into its own corner. What you're getting is walkable access to a wild number of restaurants—90 within a mile, seriously—plus a grocery store and coffee shop each about an 11-minute walk. There are 11 parks within a mile if you want to stay local, or Spring Lake sits 1.8 miles out for something bigger. Kids go to West MI Academy of Arts and Academics, and if you need to head downtown Grand Rapids, you're looking at 42 minutes. It's the kind of spot where you can walk to dinner tonight, hit the beach tomorrow morning, and still feel like you've got breathing room.

Ottawa County crime & safety stats →To buy a median-priced Ferry Heights Sub home (around $375,000) at today's 6.65% 30-year fixed rate with 20% down, you'd need roughly $67k/year in household income to qualify — an estimated monthly payment of $2,526 (principal, interest, property tax est., and insurance).

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.
