Gildner Park
Surrounded by nature
Median $310K·Walkability 1.9/10·Schools 7.8/10
What surprises people about Gildner Park is how much suburban breathing room thirty-two acres can hold—homes sit on lots just under a third of an acre, giving you genuine space without feeling remote. The subdivision feels like its own small world, tucked into the West Highlands Area with straightforward access to both the beach at Grand Haven (thirteen minutes) and downtown Grand Rapids (just under forty). A grocery store and restaurants are about a mile away, and Pomona Park is a ten-minute walk if you want to get out without driving.

For an accurate, comparable picture, see the jurisdiction-wide figures for Ottawa County.
Ottawa County crime & safety stats →To buy a median-priced Gildner Park home (around $309,500) at today's 6.49% 30-year fixed rate with 20% down, you'd need roughly $55k/year in household income to qualify — an estimated monthly payment of $2,059 (principal, interest, property tax est., and insurance).
| Down payment | Monthly payment | Income needed |
|---|---|---|

| 10% (+PMI) | $2,370/mo | $63,202 |

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.
