Great schools with outdoor access
Median $875K·Walkability 1.7/10·Schools 8.8/10
The Hamptons sits on twenty-four acres where each condo lot averages just over half an acre—rare breathing room for a development this dense. Hidden Lake is half a mile away, and Cascade Community Association Park lies about a mile down the road. You're ten minutes from downtown Grand Rapids and roughly sixteen minutes to Gerald R. Ford Airport, which means you've got access without the constant sound of jet fuel and ambition. A grocery store, coffee shop, and restaurant are all within a mile and a half, and there are six grocers within two miles if you're the type who shops around. The median home here runs around nine hundred ninety-four thousand dollars.

Crime in The Hamptons 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 Kent County.
Kent County crime & safety stats →To buy a median-priced The Hamptons home (around $875,000) at today's 6.49% 30-year fixed rate with 20% down, you'd need roughly $155k/year in household income to qualify — an estimated monthly payment of $5,820 (principal, interest, property tax est., and insurance).
| Down payment | Monthly payment | Income needed |
|---|---|---|
| 20% | $5,820/mo | $155,197 |
| 10% (+PMI) | $6,700/mo | $178,680 |
| 5% (+PMI) | $6,995/mo | $186,532 |
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.
