Late afternoon light hits these modest, well-kept homes best, when the whole forty-two-acre grid softens into something genuinely pleasant. McCarthy's Sub sits in the Lampe Sub Area, where quarter-acre lots and straightforward ranch architecture let the neighborhood breathe without pretense. Mercury Park is a short walk away, and seven parks sit within a mile—enough green space that you're not staring at driveways from your porch. Downtown Grand Rapids is under an hour, and the Grand Haven beach hits in six minutes flat when you need to remember why you live in Michigan.

Crime in Mccarthys 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 Mccarthys Sub home (around $277,250) at today's 6.65% 30-year fixed rate with 20% down, you'd need roughly $50k/year in household income to qualify — an estimated monthly payment of $1,867 (principal, interest, property tax est., and insurance).
| Down payment | Monthly payment | Income needed |
|---|---|---|
| 20% | $1,867/mo | $49,799 |
| 10% (+PMI) | $2,149/mo | $57,318 |
| 5% (+PMI) | $2,244/mo | $59,845 |
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.
