Driving through Lincoln Hill Plat No. 1, you're in a compact 6-acre subdivision where lots average just over a fifth of an acre—tight enough to feel connected, spacious enough to breathe. An unnamed park sits a short walk away, and you're surrounded by 26 parks within a mile, so green space isn't hard to find. Dining and coffee are both around a 6-minute walk, and the restaurant scene nearby is robust—78 options within a mile will keep you from cooking the same thing twice. A grocery store is equally close, while the Rockford–Rogue River Launch sits just half a mile away if you've got a boat in mind. The subdivision sits in the Sowerby Add. No.1 Area, served by Rockford Public Schools, and homes here run around $325K. Downtown Grand Rapids is about 21 minutes away by car, making it easy to reach the city without living in it.

Crime in Lincoln Hill Plat No. 1 is reported at the city level, not the neighborhood level.

To buy a median-priced Lincoln Hill Plat No. 1 home (around $290,000) at today's 6.65% 30-year fixed rate with 20% down, you'd need roughly $52k/year in household income to qualify — an estimated monthly payment of $1,953 (principal, interest, property tax est., and insurance).

Down paymentMonthly paymentIncome needed
20% $1,953/mo$52,090
10% (+PMI)$2,248/mo$59,954
5% (+PMI)$2,347/mo$62,597

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.
