The school line that affects your price
Madison Heights is split between two districts, and it matters for value: Lamphere Public Schools serves roughly the northern part of the city (higher-rated), while Madison District Public Schools serves the south. Because buyers price the district, two similar homes on opposite sides of that line can sell for different amounts. Always confirm the district for a specific address.
