The Newaygo Rd & Moon Ct area spans nearly 2,800 acres across Casnovia township, a sprawling terrain where space itself becomes the main amenity—the kind of place where your lot size matters more than your zip code. Kids attend Grant Public School District, and if you need groceries or dinner out, you're looking at a short drive: roughly 2.5 miles to the nearest restaurant, 3.1 miles to a grocery store. Moore County Park sits just a 9-minute walk away, which actually means it's right there. Downtown Grand Rapids is a 37.5-minute drive, far enough that you're genuinely choosing rural living rather than commuting through it. This is the kind of neighborhood where property sprawls and roads have numbers instead of names—the trade-off being the quiet that comes with actual distance.

Crime in Casnovia Area is reported at the city level, not the neighborhood level.

To buy a median-priced Casnovia Area home (around $235,150) at today's 6.65% 30-year fixed rate with 20% down, you'd need roughly $42k/year in household income to qualify — an estimated monthly payment of $1,584 (principal, interest, property tax est., and insurance).

Down paymentMonthly paymentIncome needed
20% $1,584/mo$42,237
10% (+PMI)$1,823/mo$48,614
5% (+PMI)$1,903/mo$50,758

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.
