Richmond Park Add.
Solid value in a growing area
Median $285K·Walkability 6.0/10·Schools 4.6/10
Richmond Park Add. sits just blocks from a transit stop and steps from restaurants that span everything from taquerias to brewpubs—the kind of density that makes a 35-acre subdivision feel plugged into something larger. Homes here run around $255K, and the lots are tight (averaging 0.12 acres), which means neighbors are close enough to hear each other's weekend plans. You're in West Grand, the second-largest neighborhood in Grand Rapids, where the furniture-industry bones of the early 1900s are still visible in the architecture and the working-class rhythm. Richmond Park itself is a four-minute walk away—57 acres with baseball, tennis, and skiing when winter hits. Downtown is eight and a half minutes by car. Grand Rapids Public Schools serves the area, and when you need a break from the neighborhood hum, the Grand River's Fish Ladder is a mile down the road.

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.
