Walkable near top schools
Median $281K·Walkability 7.5/10·Schools 4.2/10
What surprises people about this neighborhood is how much life happens on foot—you're steps from a transit stop, a coffee shop, and some of the city's best restaurants, yet you're also surrounded by 26 parks within a mile and tucked into Midtown, a genuinely walkable part of Grand Rapids. The subdivision itself spans twelve acres of older, well-maintained homes—American Foursquares and Queen Anne Victorians, many over a century old, updated for modern living without losing their character. Homes here run around $370K, and lot sizes average a tenth of an acre, which means you're living close to neighbors in a dense, walkable grid rather than spreading out.

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.
