Review of Columbus, Ohio


Pleasantville - Manageable family living
Star Rating - 11/15/2008
Let’s face it - when you have young kids, like we do, ordering Chinese food at 2AM is low on the priority list. Columbus is not exciting, there is nothing around, and the population is underwhelming. I wouldn't want to be single here. But, for affordable housing, good schools (at least in the suburbs), and convenient access, it’s pretty easy living. Newcomers will have to join in the madness for Buckeye football (or at least feign enthusiasm)!
