Upper Arlington
The City of Upper Arlington is one of the most prestigious communities in Greater Columbus. The older part "Old Arlington" features curving streets, and stately built homes built during the early year of the city's development in the 1920's. But more contemporary housing is also plentiful, as are smaller homes and a diverse mix of rental units.
Recreational opportunities for all ages are available through a system of 33 city parks, a senior center, and three swimming pools. Along the Scioto River (the City's western border) is a 500-acre City of Columbus park offering boating, fishing and hiking and biking trails.
Upper Arlington is conveniently located on the northwest side of Columbus, about 10 minutes from downtown.
