I live in the Thurber Village portion of Columbus, Ohio 43215 just North of the Arena District about 1 mile South of Grandview and about 1 mile to the Short North, OSU Campus and Downtown Columbus.

Thurber Village rental properties are modestly priced compared to the city of Grandview and the Arena District which makes it particularly appealing if you love the Blue Jackets, Nation Wide Arena or the Columbus Crew.

You can get to nearly any part of Franklin County as a commuter who utilizes public transportation.

Walking distance to nearby fenced in public dog park and Goodale Park.

Columbus is a smaller city that has been building itself up over the years. Some of the best things about Columbus are the local businesses. The locals here are supportive of all the local businesses and the local businesses all support local up and coming artists. The Columbus art scene has grew over the years, with many of our local artists growing beyond Ohio. Their murals are painted all through downtown Columbus. We’re a small city, but we offer a great atmosphere, inclusion for all, great food, and good schools.

Columbus is a medium-sized city with a diverse population. If you are a fan of cuisine from around the world you can find it here. There is a thriving art district downtown and many breweries and gourmet restaurants. The Museum of Art and the Center of Science and Industry are also great attractions.

Columbus is the fourteenth largest city in the nation and it would be considered urban. However, I have found that there is a pleasant balance between city life and suburban life, making it a great place for people of all ages. There are incredible museums, restaurants, nightlife opportunities, displays of public art, and locally owned cafes and boutiques.

When moving to Columbus, Ohio you should prepare to expect bad drivers and some good ones as well. The architecture of Columbus is beautiful too, from the German Village with its Germanic styled structures to the gorgeously organized downtown and more. One can also find a broad amount of Diversity from Somali to Korea to Spanish speaking communities, allowing for anyone and everyone to find where they fit in. The City of Columbus is impressive in modern ideals and strives to keep improving itself while welcoming anyone to build a life here.
