In Brockway Township, you can get the same atmosphere and acreage as the other rural townships nearby, but with a bit more convenience and community. About 1,800 people live in the area surrounding Yale, a small city with schools, green spaces and daily necessities – things not every rural Michigan township has close at hand. At the end of the day, however, it's still the spacious land and quiet surroundings that bring people to Brockway Township.
You're most likely to find a Cape Cod, early 1900s cottage, raised-ranch or ranch-style home in town, which range from the low $100,000s to the low $400,000s. Some houses come with a decent amount of land that residents can farm, hunt on or lease to local farmers. Empty plots ranging from 1 to 30 acres have sold recently for between the low $100,000s and the mid-$200,000s. The township also has a few New Traditional and modern Craftsman homes. While none have sold recently, they have estimated values ranging from the mid-$400,000s to the mid-$700,000s. "You can buy a home for $600,000 in a suburban area and get a decent-sized home in a dense neighborhood. Here, $600,000 will get you a really nice home on some serious acreage," says Eric Raymo, a Realtor with eXp Realty. Despite its new homes and proximity to amenities in Yale, Brockway Township has lower home prices than in Lynn Township, Greenwood Township and Emmett.
Brockway is a laid-back place with a friendly, small-town vibe. You'll know your neighbors and, according to Raymo, maybe your neighbor's business. Still, it's the type of place where all are welcome, and locals let one another be. Most residents have been in the area for decades, in houses passed down by their parents or grandparents, and those buying homes there for the first time are sometimes returning after years away. "Kids will go to school and bounce around the city for a few years," Raymo says. "Then they'll come back because they miss the peace of being out in the country."
Perhaps the biggest perk of living in Brockway Township is being close to daily necessities and social spaces. In Brockway, you're a 15-minute drive or less from Yale and its amenities:
Children are zoned to attend schools in the Yale Public Schools district – a highly rated district in the area. Yale Elementary School, Yale Junior High School and Yale Senior High School are in three different buildings on one campus, making busing and drop-off easier. Michigan has school choice, but parents often keep their children in the local district for convenience and to meet more parents. "Once you get into the school district, you know just about everyone in town," Raymo says.
The average commute for residents is about 40 minutes, with Port Huron at 30 minutes, Lapeer at 40 minutes and Detroit over an hour away. "People are willing to drive an hour to get to work if that means they can be back near family, and they can raise their kids here to grow up the same way they did," Raymo says. Michigan has cold, snowy winters, so it's natural to wonder about road conditions after storms. "If you don't have four-wheel drive, you might as well just hunker down," Raymo says. "The main roads get plowed because they're arteries, but the side roads can be icy and take getting used to."
