There are 92. For comparison, Granger had 216 of these sales and Mishawaka had 18 in the same time period.<\/p>\n<p>You&#8217;ll see the map has clusters in older neighborhoods like Sunnymede, Ridgedale and <a href=\"http:\/\/www.michianarealestateguide.com\/neighborhoods\/erskine-manor\/\" title=\"Erskine Manor, South Bend\" target=\"_blank\">Erskine Manor<\/a>, as well as newer neighborhoods like <a href=\"http:\/\/www.michianarealestateguide.com\/neighborhoods\/westwood-hills\/\" title=\"Westwood Hills, South Bend\" target=\"_blank\">Westwood Hills<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.michianarealestateguide.com\/neighborhoods\/deer-run\/\" title=\"Deer Run, South Bend\" target=\"_blank\">Deer Run<\/a> and Pendle Woods.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s not a bad situation for a city to have a wide variety of housing that doesn&#8217;t skimp on the affordable end but also has a healthy population of luxury homes.<\/p>\n<p>If you are looking for more on the area&#8217;s high-end subdivisions, try this <a href=\"http:\/\/www.michianarealestateguide.com\/neighborhoods\/\" title=\"Luxury Neighborhoods in Granger, Mishawaka and South Bend\" target=\"_blank\">Luxury Neighborhood Guide<\/a> that covers South Bend, Granger and Mishawaka.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Midwest is often noted for its affordable housing, as in this recent ranking of metro areas highlights.
