Jamestown South
Solid value in a growing area
Median $390K·Walkability 3.0/10·Schools 4.4/10
What surprises most people about Jamestown South is how much is actually within reach—96 restaurants within a mile, a grocery store just down the road, and downtown Grand Rapids a quick 12-minute drive away. You'd think an 18-acre subdivision would feel remote, but the location works hard against that. Homes here run around $369K on lots averaging just over a quarter acre, which means less yard upkeep and more time enjoying what's nearby.

Crime in Jamestown South 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 Jamestown South home (around $390,000) at today's 6.49% 30-year fixed rate with 20% down, you'd need roughly $69k/year in household income to qualify — an estimated monthly payment of $2,594 (principal, interest, property tax est., and insurance).

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.
