Rosewood sits on the west side of the Grand Rapids metro, a residential part of Jenison inside Georgetown Charter Township in Ottawa County, roughly a 15-minute drive east to downtown Grand Rapids. The name is a local one, anchored to Rosewood Street — a real Jenison street in ZIP 49428, with one home in the area sitting right on it — and to the township's Rosewood Park at 18th Avenue and Rosewood Street. No record explains how the street and park came by the name; it's simply the corridor the area is known by. Georgetown Township itself dates to 1840 and became a charter township in 1965.

Crime in Rosewood 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 Ottawa County.
Ottawa County crime & safety stats →To buy a median-priced Rosewood home (around $367,500) at today's 6.65% 30-year fixed rate with 20% down, you'd need roughly $66k/year in household income to qualify — an estimated monthly payment of $2,475 (principal, interest, property tax est., and insurance).
| Down payment | Monthly payment | Income needed |
|---|---|---|
| 20% | $2,475/mo | $66,010 |
| 10% (+PMI) | $2,849/mo | $75,976 |
| 5% (+PMI) | $2,975/mo | $79,326 |
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.
