Top neighborhoods in Columbus

  • Old North Columbus

    Old North Columbus

    What it’s like to live in Old North Columbus

    College town character defines Old North Columbus, where historic homes and apartments surround Ohio State University's northern boundary. The district centers around the vibrant High Street corridor with locally-owned restaurants, coffee shops and boutiques creating walkable alternatives to campus chain establishments. Though student concentration creates seasonal turnover and occasional weekend noise, many blocks maintain more balanced demographics suitable for graduate students and young professionals requiring consistent quiet. The area's excellent public transportation includes multiple bus routes creating car-optional living unusual for typically automobile-oriented Midwestern cities, while the flat topography makes bicycle transportation practical throughout most months despite occasional winter weather interruptions requiring alternative planning during peak snow seasons.

    North Linden

    What it’s like to live in North Linden

    Diverse dining thrives along Cleveland Avenue's Global Food Corridor. Renters appreciate affordable duplexes but note sparse tree canopy (18% coverage) in this sun-baked grid of postwar housing.

  • South Central Hilltop

    South Central Hilltop

    What it’s like to live in South Central Hilltop

    South Central Hilltop offers affordable living with historic character in western Columbus. Rental homes typically include more yard space and square footage than similarly priced options closer to downtown. While the neighborhood provides excellent value with good access to both downtown Columbus and the developing Sullivant Avenue corridor, some blocks remain in various stages of transition requiring local knowledge. Particularly appealing to urban pioneers and budget-conscious renters comfortable with evolving neighborhoods who prioritize space and value over established amenities.
