Columbus Overview | An informative introduction to Columbus, Ohio

Columbus is one of the great cities of the midwest. It's a city that I've been able to visit a few times over the past three years and I think the city of Columbus has a lot of offer. In this video I touch on Columbus's history, population, skyline as well as a few things that make the city unique. Thanks for watching: Columbus Overview | An informative introduction to Columbus, Ohio.

My husband and I are from Columbus. We're currently living overseas due to being in the military. I do have to say that I miss home very much, so it was really nice to see a little video of it. Thank you!

Wow. I very rarely comment on the videos I watch from around the country, but I must say, yours is very well done. Informative and beautiful.

I’m an OSU student and I’m heading to Columbus this autumn! I can’t properly express how excited I am to be able to live in the city!

You did a very good job with a quick look at Columbus. We lived there for 32 year and were only forced to move when our jobs were cut. For the most part we enjoyed living there. Winters can be tough but Fall is beautiful and the weather is usually cool but pleasant and sunny, perfect for football and apple picking. Wonderful apples grow in orchards just 20 minutes east of Columbus. Yes, the skyline is only OK. Part of that is because the state originally built the tallest buildings but part of it is a lack of planning by the city. The greatest problem (and getting worse) is getting around. Mass transit is mediocre at best, buses only. It's a very youthful city with excellent arts and restaurants. They do have professional hockey with a terrific arena and, even you're not a fan of hockey, going to a game has been called one of the best sports experiences in the USA. Another big deal yearly is the Arnold Schwarzenegger Sports Festival where, among other things, they crown the top body buildiers in the nation.

I'm from Iran and I moved from LA, and then San Diego to Columbus. My family live in Melbourn and Sydney Australia and I visit them a lot. Between All these cities I LOVE COLUMBUS THE MOST. The city is amazing BUT THE COMMUNITY IS WONDERFUL. people are welcoming and nice. You can just wear THE Ohio State jersey and they will treat you like a family. One day I was late and I needed to take bus but I forgot to by a pass, The bus driver told me you are a buckeye and gave me a free ride with a free pass for return. This whole city is a huge family.

Good video, but I had no idea people were so down on our skyline! I think if you are coming up to the city from the south, on 71N, when you first turn that bend and the skyline comes into view, it is awesome! It's less impressive from other directions though. Also the Huntington Center's design is worth mentioning. It looks like bigfoot took a bite out of a skyscraper!

I was born in Columbus Ohio, went to Central High School as did my sister and father. I moved away decades ago but I'm still a Buckeye at heart. I still get goose bumps when I see and hear the Ohio State University Marching Band play "Le Regiment" while forming "Script Ohio".

I love Columbus Ohio. Walking the Scioto mile trail going downtown and German Village. It's a lot to do without spending any money.

Good job! I do love it here but Cincy, for sure, wins the skyline contest. You left out the Columbus Zoo however where the famous Jack Hannah was the director up until 2020! And despite no Pro football, baseball, or basketball teams are present in Cbus there are professional hockey and soccer teams. Big Fun Columbus is worth mentioning as well. It's a vintage toy and collectible store with an IMPRESSIVE inventory that you just have to see!

Good starting video i plan on moving my family here from new york in 2 months im so ready!!

[matthewlowe]

One more amazing thing you could've touched on is the Columbus Zoo and Aquarium. I believe it's the largest zoo in the US and it's an absolute must visit for people exploring the city. It also has a water park, because why not?

The Leveque Tower is the Symbol of Columbus, first skyscraper too, when it was built, it was the 5th biggest Skyscraper in the World

[primecalibur]

COSI is sick for sure, but my favorite thing about living here is the selection of really good food - it's hard to compete when I travel around haha.

[BryantBaudelaire]

I’m from Nashville Tennessee and I absolutely love Columbus. One of my favorite cities in the country!

[laurabagley]

I’ve heard it’s worth making a trip to Columbus just for the science museum! Interesting city, great video 👍🏼

[PatelPresh]

Loved the skyline part! I will say I agree i’m a sucker for my city but our density isn’t good. We have a lot of tall buildings if put together it would be great! Columbus is expecting some notable high rises! Should be a nice touch. Can’t wait

[Heathermc]

I moved to Columbus 3 years ago from NY state! I absolutely love it here!

[benricciardo]

Intresting thing about the skyline is the window placement. If you loook at the older building you can notice the windows face away from the river as it use to be very dirty. Also, German village is the best. I’m from Columbus and I take a lot of these things for granted

[trirycheman]

Lived here my whole life, over 50 years now. I really thought our skyline would be much more epic by now. A few new skyscrapers over the years, but not nearly what I imagined.

Columbus is easily the most satisfying city to live in on this side of the U.S. Incredibly unique, especially for Ohio, whose cities and towns become redundant quickly. Columbus has that something. Don’t know exactly what it is but man this city is downright exciting. I love living in Columbus!!
