Late afternoon is when Gross Point Groves shows its best side—light hitting the tree-lined streets just right, neighbors out walking dogs, the whole six-acre subdivision feeling like a small pocket of somewhere. You're in John Ball Park, the west-side neighborhood anchored by the zoo and that sprawling green space, but this platted subdivision has its own quiet rhythm. Lots here run about a fifth of an acre, homes hover around $333K, and you're close enough to thirty-six restaurants within a mile that you'll never exhaust your options—coffee's a six-minute walk, decent dinner spots are even closer.

Crime in Gross Point Groves 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.

To buy a median-priced Gross Point Groves home (around $507,200) at today's 6.65% 30-year fixed rate with 20% down, you'd need roughly $91k/year in household income to qualify — an estimated monthly payment of $3,416 (principal, interest, property tax est., and insurance).

Down paymentMonthly paymentIncome needed
20% $3,416/mo$91,103
10% (+PMI)$3,932/mo$104,858
5% (+PMI)$4,106/mo$109,481

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.
