The neighborhood’s grid-pattern streets are lined with bungalows from the late 1800s and early 1900s, many with open or enclosed front porches. A few mid-1900s bungalows and ranch-style houses sit in the neighborhood as well. Houses are typically a few feet apart on lots less than a quarter acre. Fixer-uppers sell for $55,000 to $100,000, while well-maintained or renovated homes go for $115,000 to $230,000. “It’s a very stable neighborhood,” says Henderson. “We have a few vacant lots owned by the city, and they actually pay us to maintain them.” Muskegon Public Schools has a
