Review of Columbus, Ohio


You might be surprised...
Star Rating - 2/7/2008
It took my employer 5 years to get me to move here from San Francisco Bay Area. "You couldn't pay me enough to move to Columbus" I kept saying, but things changed as they often do and here I am and I'm loving it! No matter where you live, you're 15 minutes away from everything. Great shopping, restaurants, sporting events, community events and lots of open spaces. There are over 15 metro parks if you like the outdoors - hiking, running, bike riding and horseback riding - it feels great to get out of the concrete jungle. The traffic, at it's worst is like a Saturday morning in Los Angeles, cost of living is good, especially if you own a home, you really get your money's worth here - it's a good place to have great quality of life. Don't judge the book by it's cover, come spend a day or two and find out for yourself!
