Oxbow Condominium
Strong schools draw families here
Median $712K·Walkability 5.9/10·Schools 8.5/10
The moment you turn onto the property, you're met with open sky and the gentle slope of four acres that feel larger than they sound. Oxbow Condominium sits along the Grand River corridor where the landscape breathes—trees frame the edges, and the water's proximity is felt more than forced, a quiet presence rather than a selling point. Homes here run around $721K, and the scale of the grounds gives that price real weight; you're not packed in shoulder-to-shoulder. Forest Hills Public Schools serves the area, and the location keeps downtown Grand Rapids just 16.6 minutes away by car, close enough that city life doesn't require a commitment. The airport lands about 19 minutes out as well, which means you're genuinely accessible without feeling tethered to traffic patterns. What makes this pocket work is the density of actual living nearby—18 restaurants and six grocery stores within a mile, a coffee shop 2.6 miles down the road, and Leonard Field practically next door for a quick walk. The Ada boat launch sits less than half a mile away if the water calls to you. This isn't a development that demands you choose between land and convenience; it's simply a place where both are already there, waiting.

Crime in Oxbow Condominium 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 Oxbow Condominium home (around $712,203) at today's 6.49% 30-year fixed rate with 20% down, you'd need roughly $126k/year in household income to qualify — an estimated monthly payment of $4,737 (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.
