Median $326K·Walkability 5.4/10·Schools 8.3/10
Kiels Sub sits within the Sunset Heights Sub Area, an 11-acre pocket of West Michigan where the horizon opens to modest residential blocks and the everyday conveniences of a working neighborhood. Homes here—modest ranches and colonials on quarter-acre lots—run around $470K, and they're within a three-minute walk of coffee and dinner, or six minutes to groceries on foot. The Hudsonville Public School District serves the area, while downtown Grand Rapids sits about twenty minutes south. What makes the place tick, though, is the density of small life: forty-two restaurants and nearly two dozen grocery stores crowd the surrounding mile, and five parks within a similar radius mean GrandmasPark is essentially your backyard—a five-minute stroll away.

Crime in Kiels Sub 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 Ottawa County.
Ottawa County crime & safety stats →To buy a median-priced Kiels Sub home (around $326,000) at today's 6.49% 30-year fixed rate with 20% down, you'd need roughly $58k/year in household income to qualify — an estimated monthly payment of $2,168 (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.
