Howard City (Montcalm County)
Solid value in a growing area
Median $215K·Schools 5.0/10
This stretch of Montcalm County sits roughly thirty minutes from Grand Rapids, close enough for a drive but far enough to feel genuinely removed. The homes here lean toward recent renovations—open layouts, granite countertops, fresh paint—often built on generous lots that give you actual yard space. Exposed original plank walls from the 1920s pop up in older houses, and metal roofing appears frequently alongside cedar trim, a regional sensibility about materials that hold up.
