Great schools with outdoor access
Median $550K·Walkability 6.7/10·Schools 8.8/10
You'll feel the suburban ease the moment you pull in—tree-lined streets, ranch homes in brick and aluminum siding spread across 109 acres, the kind of place where you're never more than a few minutes from what you need. A grocery run is a quick walk away, and there's a restaurant within two minutes if dinner at home isn't happening. The East Grand Rapids Public Schools district serves the area, and downtown Grand Rapids sits just under 13 minutes north by car. Homes here run around $492K, and the proximity to the Albert-Realtors Hall St. Sub. Area keeps you connected to the broader region—plus you're only about 16 minutes from Gerald R. Ford airport. There are 96 restaurants within a mile and a transit stop practically at your doorstep, and if you're after green space, Cambridge Park is less than a mile away, with Reeds Lake another mile or so beyond that.

Crime in Paris Park 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 Paris Park home (around $550,000) at today's 6.49% 30-year fixed rate with 20% down, you'd need roughly $98k/year in household income to qualify — an estimated monthly payment of $3,658 (principal, interest, property tax est., and insurance).
| Down payment | Monthly payment | Income needed |
|---|---|---|
| 20% | $3,658/mo | $97,552 |
| 10% (+PMI) | $4,212/mo | $112,313 |
| 5% (+PMI) | $4,397/mo | $117,249 |
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.
