Hi Lo Acres
Quiet lots near top schools
Median $600K·Walkability 1.0/10·Schools 8.3/10
Early evening light hits these 3-acre lots just right, turning the wide yards golden and making the space feel even more generous than it already is. The 14-acre subdivision sits in a genuinely rural pocket where you're not fighting neighbors for elbow room—each home gets real land to breathe on. Downtown Grand Rapids is about 20 minutes away when you need it, and Gerald R. Ford Airport runs 24 minutes, which means you've got easy access without the hum of traffic in your backyard. There are three parks within a mile, including Ada Roadside Park for a quick walk, and the Grand River boat launch sits just two miles down the road if water access matters to you. Homes here run around $538K, and they're served by Forest Hills Public Schools. When you need groceries or dinner, both are about two and a half miles away—close enough to be convenient, far enough that you're choosing to drive there rather than stumbling out your door into retail sprawl.

Crime in Hi Lo 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 Hi Lo Acres home (around $600,000) at today's 6.65% 30-year fixed rate with 20% down, you'd need roughly $108k/year in household income to qualify — an estimated monthly payment of $4,041 (principal, interest, property tax est., and insurance).

| 10% (+PMI) | $4,652/mo | $124,043 |

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.
