Some renters want to be in the middle of the action; plenty of others just want to be a short drive from it. If you'd rather come home to a quieter, tree-lined neighborhood while still having Columbus's biggest shopping and dining destinations within easy reach, Northern Woods hits that balance better than most areas in the city.

What's Actually Nearby

Northern Woods sits close enough to both Polaris Fashion Place and Easton Town Center that either is typically a 10 to 15 minute drive, giving residents access to two of the largest retail and dining destinations in central Ohio without living in the middle of either one's traffic and noise. Uptown Westerville is also just minutes away for a smaller-scale downtown feel, with local shops, restaurants, and coffee spots that don't require a mall trip.

It's Not Just Shopping

Green space is easy to find in this part of the city. Northern Woods Park offers shaded play areas for a quick evening walk, and Sharon Woods Metro Park, with nearly 800 acres of trails and forest, is close by for anyone who wants a longer hike or a quiet weekend outside. The Alum Creek multi-use trail runs nearby as well, a solid option for running, biking, or just getting outside without driving anywhere.

Why Location Outside the Core Can Actually Work Better

●      Shorter drives during off-peak hours, since you're not fighting downtown or Short North congestion to get home

●      Lower rent than the trendiest central neighborhoods, without giving up access to the same shopping and dining

●      A quieter, more residential feel at the end of the day, while still being close to entertainment options when you want them

●      Easy access to multiple retail hubs, Polaris and Easton, rather than being limited to whichever one happens to be closest
