West Hampton
Great schools with outdoor access
Median $940K·Walkability 0.9/10·Schools 8.8/10
You might expect a sprawling condo development to feel generic, but West Hampton surprises you with fifty-five acres of breathing room—the kind of scale you'd normally find further out. Homes cluster around modest lot sizes, just under half an acre each, which means plenty of green space between buildings rather than that cramped-together feeling. A coffee shop sits about a mile away, and you're roughly a mile and a half from restaurants, so errands don't require much of a drive. Hidden Lake is half a mile off, and Cascade Community Association Park sits about a mile down the road if you want somewhere to walk. Grocery options abound—a dozen stores within two miles—so you've got real choice when it comes to where you shop.

Crime in West Hampton 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 West Hampton home (around $940,000) at today's 6.65% 30-year fixed rate with 20% down, you'd need roughly $169k/year in household income to qualify — an estimated monthly payment of $6,332 (principal, interest, property tax est., and insurance).
| Down payment | Monthly payment | Income needed |
|---|---|---|
| 20% | $6,332/mo | $168,842 |
| 10% (+PMI) | $7,288/mo | $194,334 |
| 5% (+PMI) | $7,609/mo | $202,902 |
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.
