Median $1.3M·Walkability 1.8/10·Schools 4.9/10
If you're headed to The Gables, the first thing you'll want to know is that you're about 7 minutes from Grand Haven beach—close enough that "let's go catch the sunset" is an actual weeknight plan, not a weekend production. The community sits on 15 acres in the Harbor Point Area. You've got 66 restaurants within a mile, which sounds like a lot until you realize how many different dinner conversations that opens up. The nearest coffee shop is about a 15-minute walk, and a restaurant is closer—roughly 12 minutes on foot. Spring Lake is just over a mile away if you want to venture slightly beyond the community grounds. Downtown Grand Rapids is a straight shot, about 44 minutes out, so it's there when you need it without being so close that you're dealing with city noise.

Crime in The Gables 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 The Gables home (around $1,300,000) at today's 6.65% 30-year fixed rate with 20% down, you'd need roughly $234k/year in household income to qualify — an estimated monthly payment of $8,756 (principal, interest, property tax est., and insurance).
| Down payment | Monthly payment | Income needed |
|---|---|---|
| 20% | $8,756/mo | $233,505 |
| 10% (+PMI) | $10,078/mo | $268,760 |
| 5% (+PMI) | $10,523/mo | $280,609 |
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.
