Midcentury homes, often with updates
Kops Park is made up mostly of Cape Cod and ranch-style homes. Some have Tudor-inspired details, while others feature the brick-heavy look that was popular in the midcentury era. Most were built in the 1950s, and many have been updated with renovated kitchens, quartz counters and finished lower levels. Fenced backyards and covered patios are common, too. The median sale price is in the mid-$200,000s, with homes typically ranging from the mid-$100,000s to the lower $300,000s. That puts Kops Park in a similar price range to nearby Saint Aemilian's and Golden Valley, while remaining a bit less expensive than Mount Mary, Cooper Park and Enderis Park.

Down the road is longtime-standing Bunzel's Old-Fashioned Meat Market, which the Bunzel family has owned and operated for four generations. Though the store closed after current owner Chip Bunzel's grandfather passed, his father reopened it in 1976 and brought all six kids to work with him. "It was scary, but we managed to keep things afloat, and the community has been great to us," Chip says.
