Hudsonville in Ottawa County

Hudsonville has 7,769 residents (give or take 34) (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B01003, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B01003?g=160XX00US2639800, checked 2026-10-19), about 1,886 people per square mile.

Hudsonville is about 12 miles from the Census center point for Grand Rapids in a straight line and covers 4.119 square miles of land (Census 2024 Gazetteer internal points and land area, https://www2.census.gov/geo/docs/maps-data/data/gazetteer/2024_Gazetteer/, checked 2026-10-19).

Fuel mix

Of the 2,830 occupied homes in Hudsonville, 91% heat with natural gas, 0% with heating oil, 6% with electricity and 1% with propane (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25040, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25040?g=160XX00US2639800, checked 2026-10-19).

Gas heats 91% of Hudsonville against electricity at 6%, so most quotes here are a partial-home system that carries the shoulder seasons and the summer while the gas furnace handles the coldest nights, or a whole-home system when the house is ready for it.

Hudsonville has about the Ottawa County oil share of 1% and 3 points less electric heat than the county's 9% (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25040, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25040?g=050XX00US26139, checked 2026-10-19).

Housing stock

Hudsonville has 2,889 housing units, 6% built before 1940 and 47% before 1980, with 25% built in 2000 or later (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25034, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25034?g=160XX00US2639800, checked 2026-10-19).

Hudsonville has 3 points fewer pre-1940 homes than Ottawa County as a whole (9%) and 5 points fewer homes built after 2000 than the county's 30% (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25034, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25034?g=050XX00US26139, checked 2026-10-19).

The median Hudsonville home was built in 1982 (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25035, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25035?g=160XX00US2639800, checked 2026-10-19) and the median home has 6.5 rooms (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25018, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25018?g=160XX00US2639800, checked 2026-10-19).

60% of Hudsonville homes are single-family detached, 5% are in two- to four-unit buildings and 10% are in buildings of five or more units (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25024, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25024?g=160XX00US2639800, checked 2026-10-19).

14% of Hudsonville homes are rented (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25003, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25003?g=160XX00US2639800, checked 2026-10-19), so beside the 60% detached houses there is a real share of jobs where the landlord, not the resident, signs the quote.

Hudsonville has 10 points fewer detached houses than Ottawa County overall (70%) (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25024, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25024?g=050XX00US26139, checked 2026-10-19).

Only 14% of Hudsonville homes are rented (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25003, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25003?g=160XX00US2639800, checked 2026-10-19), so nearly every quote here is the resident talking to the installer directly, and the rebate goes to the person living in the house.

Rebate path

No electric utility is on file for Hudsonville on this door yet, so this page does not name one; the name on the bill decides which rebate path applies.

DTE Energy heating and cooling rebates (southeast Michigan only), run by DTE Energy, is a live program for Michigan addresses and covers qualifying equipment at $1,500 per system (registry row 19 verified 2026-10-15, https://www.dteenergy.com/us/en/residential/save-money-energy/rebates-and-offers/air-conditioners.html, checked 2026-10-16); confirm eligibility for the Hudsonville address before counting it. With 6% of Hudsonville homes already on electric heat and 92% on gas, oil or propane, the row that applies depends on the name on the electric bill and the fuel coming out.

Consumers Energy Home Solutions 2026 (ASHP), run by Consumers Energy, is a live program for Michigan addresses and lists a standard figure of $300 (registry row 50 verified 2026-10-15, https://www.consumersenergy.com/residential/savings-and-clean-energy/rebates/heating-and-cooling, checked 2026-10-16); confirm eligibility for the Hudsonville address before counting it.

Median household income in Hudsonville is $91,280 (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B19013, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B19013?g=160XX00US2639800, checked 2026-10-19); many state and utility heat pump rebate programs set higher incentive tiers for income-qualifying households, so the household income on the application, not the town median, decides which level applies.

Cold-day number

Heating design temperature: 9F. Source: ENERGY STAR Design Temperature Limit Reference Guide (2019 Edition), Ottawa County row, 99% heating, PDF pages 56 to 60 of 141 (Revised 11/11/2020), https://www.energystar.gov/sites/default/files/Design%20Temperature%20Limit%20Reference%20Guide%20(2019%20Ed)%20-%20ENERGY%20STAR%20Single-Family%20New%20Homes_Rev11.pdf, fetched 2026-10-19, 99%.

That 9F figure is the Ottawa County cold-day number a Hudsonville heat pump is sized against, so ask the installer to show the system's heating output at 9F, not at the milder rating-label temperature.

Next step

Ask whether the quote is whole-home or partial-home, because with 91% of Hudsonville on gas and 6% already electric the two paths carry different rebate figures and different sizing.

Ask for the heat-loss calculation room by room; the median Hudsonville home has 6.5 rooms and was built around 1982, and the count of heads and the tonnage follow the rooms and the insulation, not the square footage.
