South Campus delivers an energetic, walk-everywhere lifestyle anchored by The Ohio State University, where lecture halls, research centers, and green quads shape daily rhythms. High Street hums with dining, coffee, and nightlife around Gateway – University District, complemented by indie programming at Gateway Film Center and thought-provoking exhibitions at the Wexner Center for the Arts. Students and professionals alike make use of the Ohio Union for events and study space, while game days at Ohio Stadium add a uniquely collegiate buzz that residents feel blocks away.
Living here puts you minutes from Columbus and culture-packed Short North, with quick access to Downtown and neighboring Weinland Park. Families find zoned options through Columbus City Schools, and daily logistics are easy thanks to frequent COTA service along the corridor. Housing ranges from classic early-20th-century homes and subdivided flats to modern apartments with amenities, all within reach of campus greens, cafés, and bookstores. The area sits within Franklin County, placing major employers, hospitals, and arts destinations within a short commute.
Whether you’re drawn by research labs, gallery nights, or Saturday kickoffs, South Campus offers a connected, collegiate urban experience with year-round activity and surprising pockets of calm on tree-lined side streets.
