Kimberly Park
Solid value in a growing area
Median $350K·Walkability 5.1/10·Schools 3.3/10
Kimberly Park sits within the larger Ken-O-Sha Park area on Grand Rapids' southeast side, a 49-acre subdivision where ranch and raised ranch homes from the mid-1900s typically list in the $349K range and put you fourteen minutes from downtown. The neighborhood borders one of the region's major employment hubs and sits close enough to Gerald R. Ford International Airport that commutes feel manageable rather than grinding. A transit stop sits steps away, and grocery stores cluster nearby—about eight minutes on foot—alongside 72 restaurants within a mile, giving the area a density of options that belies its residential feel. Four parks fall within a short drive, and the broader Ken-O-Sha preserve offers its own trail system just beyond the subdivision edge. New Branches Charter Academy serves the area's school-age children, and the subdivision's quiet streets reflect the practical, unpretentious character of the wider southeast Kent County community.

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.
