Urban energy, solid value
Median $235K·Walkability 7.0/10·Schools 4.6/10
The moment you turn onto the block, you notice the sidewalks—wide and well-used, the kind that still feel purposeful instead of ornamental. Posts 1st Add sits tight against the urban grain of the Columbia Avenue & State Street Area, where a seven-acre footprint holds enough character to feel like a real neighborhood rather than a development. Lots run compact at about 0.12 acres, which means neighbors are genuinely close, and the restaurants—162 of them within a mile—start practically at your front door; the nearest one is steps away, and a coffee shop sits an easy eight-minute walk down the block. A transit stop lives steps away too, making car-free mornings feasible without pretense. Rosa Parks Green anchors things within a six-minute walk, one of fifteen parks squeezed into the surrounding mile radius. Black River Public School serves the subdivision, and if you need groceries, the nearest one is a three-minute walk—the kind of errand you actually do on foot without thinking twice about it.

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.
