If someone asks what Larkwood Plat is, you'd tell them it's 37 acres of residential land where the lots average about half an acre each and homes run around $569K. The subdivision sits within Henevelds Supervisors Plat No 14 Area, where you're genuinely close to things — a dozen restaurants within a mile, a grocery store about a 13-minute walk, and DeGraaf Nature Center a quick 8-minute walk away. There are two parks within a mile, and Lake Macatawa is 1.3 miles off if you want water. A transit stop is steps away, which actually matters when you're thinking about commute patterns. The Holland City School District serves the area, and if you need the coast, Grand Haven beach is under 40 minutes out.

Crime in Larkwood Plat 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 Larkwood Plat home (around $400,000) at today's 6.49% 30-year fixed rate with 20% down, you'd need roughly $71k/year in household income to qualify — an estimated monthly payment of $2,661 (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.
