Hastings Heights
Surrounded by nature
Median $240K·Walkability 4.0/10·Schools 6.5/10
Ranches dominate the streetscape here—three and four bedrooms with full basements, attached garages, and the kind of lot sizes that let you add a shed, a fire pit, or a pole barn without feeling cramped. Most homes sit close enough to downtown that you can walk to a restaurant or coffee shop in under ten minutes, yet far enough away that your backyard stays genuinely yours. Bob King Park sits right at the edge of the neighborhood, and Twin Lakes is about a mile out if you want water access without leaving town.

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 Barry County.
Barry County crime & safety stats →To buy a median-priced Hastings Heights home (around $240,000) at today's 6.43% 30-year fixed rate with 20% down, you'd need roughly $42k/year in household income to qualify — an estimated monthly payment of $1,589 (principal, interest, property tax est., and insurance).

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.
