Columbus Facts

Columbus is the capital and the largest city in Ohio. It’s the 14th largest city in the United States. It is named after the explorer Christopher Columbus and was founded in 1812.

Information Key to Central Ohio:

The City of Columbus is a home-rule municipal corporation under the laws of the State of Ohio. The city charter provides a Mayor-Council form of government with a full-time mayor serving a fouryear term and seven part-time council members elected at large to four-year terms at two-year intervals. Columbus is the seat of government forFranklin County and is the capital of the State of Ohio. Ohio has 18 of the Electoral College’s 538 Votes.

Education

An excellent place for learning with over 130 Greater Columbus public schools, private schools, and higher education through colleges and universities. The largest university is The Ohio State University, however, there are approximately 11 other excellent higher learning institutions to choose from.

Careers

Geographic Location of Columbus

Columbus is located in the center of the state, halfway between the Ohio River and Lake Erie. Columbus is 187 miles west of Pittsburgh, 326 miles east of Chicago, 142 miles south of Cleveland, and 111 miles northeast of Cincinnati.

History

The first structures near Columbus’ city center were not the high-rise buildings you see there today, but earthen mounds constructed by the Mound Builder’s Indian tribe. In the 1700s the first European explorers entered the Midwest using the rivers as thoroughfares. The first settler in what is now known as Columbus was Lucas Sullivant, a surveyor from Kentucky, who surveyed Franklinton. When Ohio became a state in 1803, the first capital was in Chillicothe. Not many years later, the capital was moved to a more central location, Franklinton, which was known as the “Buggy Capital of the World” in 1880, because of the more than 20 companies producing horse-drawn carriages at the time.

Columbus offers a diverse range of industries and careers for workers, including banking, manufacturing, finance, insurance, wholesale, retail trade, transportation, utilities, construction, health care, government, and services.

Unique Columbus Neighborhoods Columbus is made up of many dynamic neighborhoods and communities. There is a movement toward urban living downtown with new condominiums and homes popping up every year. Some neighborhoods are locked in geographically while others outside the 1-270 outer belt are still growing. Each area is proud of its “flavor” and Columbus offers many for you to enjoy.

Bexley

Clintonville

bexley.org

clintonville.com

The City of Bexley was established in 1908 with its own elected mayor, city council, and police department. Just east of downtown, Bexley has a small population of approximately 14,000, with outstanding schools and excellent city services. Along with the public school system, Bexley is home to the exceptional Columbus School for Girls and St. Charles Preparatory School for boys. Bexley is also home to Capital University. It is populated with Tudor Style mansions as well as contemporary homes and condominiums. Many of the grand old houses were built during the prosperous 1920s and still carry the names of their original owners Jeffrey, Huntington, and Lazarus.

Further north along High Street are the communities of Clintonville and Beechwold. Whetstone Park is located here and is a popular spot with the Columbus Park of Roses where 11,000 rose bushes on 13 acres can be visited. These are two highly sought-after neighborhoods for people who want quiet streets and rows of quaint two-story homes, brick ranches, and Dutch colonials. These neighborhoods are like a city-within-a-city in Columbus.

German Village

Olde Towne East

germanvillage.com

oldetowneeast.org

German Village, immediately south of I-70 in downtown Columbus, originally housed many German workers in the 19th century. Today, it is a tourist center with gift shops, restaurants, and a history museum. The picturesque houses range from snug story-and-a-half brick bungalows to Victorian brick mansions. Schiller Park offers Summer Theater, flower gardens, and a reflecting pool. The White House has a designated German Village as a Preserve America Community for its historic preservation efforts. It is the first Ohio neighborhood to receive such a designation.

Olde Towne East was one of the first neighborhoods of Columbus. Some homes were built as early as the 1830s and represent more than 50 architectural styles. It was once Columbus’ wealthiest neighborhoods and many of the homes are now being restored. Homes in this area range from relatively modest two-story residences to magnificent Victorian homes surrounding Franklin Park Conservatory and lining Bryden Road.

Grandview Heights

universitydistrict.org

Grandview has a busy entertainment and commercial district that includes gourmet restaurants, movie theaters, antique shops, and art galleries. Its residents are as diverse as its housing, and as in Bexley, there is a core of long-term citizens who were born and raised there.

Italian Village italianvillage.org Italian Village is a small neighborhood just north of downtown and east of High Street in the Short North area. Most of the homes were built between 1880 and 1915. Today many twostory brick and frame homes are being renovated under the guidelines of the Italian Village Commission.

Italian Village has become one of the trendiest neighborhoods in Columbus. It is part of the fabulous Short North! It is hip, it is convenient to downtown, and it is affordable.

University District Experience the energy of the neighborhoods that surround the country’s largest public institution of higher learning and make up the University District! Adjacent to The Ohio State University, the University District is an eclectic mix of thirteen distinct neighborhoods and six business districts. University District is home to the famous Eddie George Restaurant. Many nearby homes have been renovated or updated recently.

Columbus Suburban Communities City of Delaware delawareohio.net On May 9, 1808, Byxbe filed or, “platted” the “plan of the town of Delaware,” marking the real beginning of the present City of Delaware. Following the War of 1812, settlers began arriving at a faster pace, including the parents of Rutherford B. Hayes, 19th President of the United States. Hayes was born in Delaware and met his future wife, Lucy, at Ohio Wesleyan University. Ohio Wesleyan was founded in 1842 by Methodists seeking to establish a liberal arts college. The Little Brown Jug is one of the premier events in harness racing that is held every year at the Delaware County Fair during the third week of September.

Dublin dublinohiousa.gov Growth must be Dublin’s middle name! From its diminutive antique village settled in the

early 1800s along the Scioto River, the village has sprawled outward many miles from its center. Most Dublin residents live in large, master-planned communities. Several larger planned communities surround golf courses, including Tartan Fields and Muirfield Village, home to the annual PGA Memorial Tournament. Dublin is also one of the most highly regarded school districts in the nation. Recreation is important to Dublin residents and they have a Community Recreation Center with a 240-seat theater, indoor soccer fields, and an ice-skating rink at Sports Ohio. There are also more than 800 acres of parks and miles of walking paths. The annual Irish Festival and St. Patrick’s Day Parade draws visitors from everywhere for good Irish fun! Dublin is revered for creating an outstanding quality of life for its residents, and the Bridge Street District which opened in 2020 further enhances that sense of community. Within walking distance of the heart of the city, Historic Dublin, the Bridge Street District hosts city celebrations and community events, connecting neighborhoods, businesses, civic uses, and green space.

Ohio law limits the amount of taxation without a vote of the people to what is known as the “10 mill limit” ($10 per thousand of assessed valuation). Any additional real estate taxes for any purpose must be voted by County residents. Your “tax rate” is an accumulation of all these levies and bond issues. delaware-auditor-ohio.manatron.com
