Johansen Beach
Strong schools draw families here
Median $230K·Schools 7.5/10
Homes cluster around generously sized lots, many with double-lot configurations that leave room for pole barns, detached garages, and the kind of recreational space that makes storing kayaks and campers feel natural rather than crowded. Sandy frontage, heated garages with water hookups for serious enthusiasts, and generator-backed reliability support year-round enjoyment. A mile or so inland, Carl Paepke Flat River Nature Park offers hiking and quieter trails when you need a break from recreation. Grocery shopping means a short drive, but out here, most people are thinking about sunsets and seasonal outdoor pursuits rather than convenience.

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.
