Heyboer Acres
Solid value in a growing area
Median $435K·Walkability 2.3/10·Schools 5.2/10
The moment you turn onto the street, you notice the lots—genuinely spacious, the kind where you can actually see sky between houses. Heyboer Acres sits on six acres in the Bentbrook Estates Area, a small platted subdivision where homes run around $435K and feed into Kentwood Public Schools. The grocery store and a coffee shop are each just over a mile away, and Stauffer Station Park is a 15-minute walk if you want to kill an afternoon. Downtown Grand Rapids is about 19 minutes north; Gerald R. Ford Airport, 10 minutes west. It's the kind of spot that doesn't scream for attention—no grand entrance, no developer branding—just solid residential land with enough breathing room to actually feel like you own it.

Crime in Heyboer Acres 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 Heyboer Acres home (around $435,000) at today's 6.49% 30-year fixed rate with 20% down, you'd need roughly $77k/year in household income to qualify — an estimated monthly payment of $2,893 (principal, interest, property tax est., and insurance).
| Down payment | Monthly payment | Income needed |

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.
