Rivertown No.1
Strong schools draw families here
Median $428K·Walkability 6.2/10·Schools 7.0/10
Rivertown No.1 sits on 21 acres carved into lots around 0.30 acres each, with homes running around $430K, and you're positioned so close to Grandville Public Schools that the commute barely registers—the real win is proximity to everything else: a transit stop steps away, a grocery within an 8-minute walk, and over 180 restaurants within a mile, which means you're not driving 20 minutes for dinner. Calvin Crest Park is a 9-minute walk if you want green space, and downtown Grand Rapids sits about 15 minutes south when you need it. The subdivision itself is tight and modest, the kind of place where you're trading yard for access—you get density done right, with errands and transit scored high, so car-free mornings are possible even if they're not the default.

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.
