One of the fastest growing cities in the U.S., census estimates show Columbus’s population surpassing those of Cleveland, Cincinnati and Indianapolis. Ohio’s capital now ranks as the 14th-largest city in the country, second only to Chicago in the Midwest. With population growth and a robust economy, Columbus has blossomed in the past decade, with new attractions and destinations springing up around the city. The Arena District has become a sports and entertainment destination. Growing interest in city living has revitalized downtown with new and reclaimed residential growth. And a major restoration of the banks of the Scioto River has brought new park land, bike trails, entertainment, and a sense of vibrancy to the downtown riverfront. Columbus has always been a friendly city. But recent growth and a new infusion of energy make it a city to be reckoned with—and one filled with unexpected beauty. Welcome to the city of Columbus!
