Highly rated schools nearby
Median $444K·Walkability 3.5/10·Schools 9.0/10
You might expect a subdivision platted in West Michigan to blur into the next one, but Lenwood Hills carries itself differently—37 acres of homes running around $415K, close enough to downtown Grand Rapids that a 13.9-minute drive doesn't feel like a commute, yet far enough out that you're not hemmed in by noise. The neighborhood sits near 3 Mile Rd & East Beltline Ave Area, where a grocery and coffee shop sit about three-quarters of a mile away, and over 125 restaurants cluster within a mile—most of them real neighborhood joints, not chains. If you want to move on foot, there's a transit stop a 15-minute walk off, and Provin Trails Park lands just over a mile out for the weekend kind of wandering. Kids here feed into Forest Hills Public Schools. It's the kind of place that works because it doesn't try too hard—solid bones, good bones, room to breathe.

Crime in Lenwood Hills 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 Lenwood Hills home (around $444,000) at today's 6.65% 30-year fixed rate with 20% down, you'd need roughly $80k/year in household income to qualify — an estimated monthly payment of $2,991 (principal, interest, property tax est., and insurance).
| Down payment | Monthly payment | Income needed |
|---|---|---|
| 20% | $2,991/mo | $79,751 |
| 10% (+PMI) | $3,442/mo | $91,792 |
| 5% (+PMI) | $3,594/mo | $95,839 |
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.
