Columbus, Ohio Apartments for Rent



Vibrant Living in Columbus

Looking for Columbus apartments? You must want to be in the center of everything - literally. As the largest city in Ohio, Columbus is located in the center of the state, halfway between Cleveland and Cincinnati. It's also in the midst of culture, music, entertainment, arts and attractions, which means you'll never be far from something fun to do.

The crossroads of Columbus is its downtown, located at Broad and High Streets, near the Scioto River. The riverfront is the site of Columbus' most acclaimed festivals, such as the Columbus Arts Festival, Festival Latino, Red, White and Boom and the Jazz and Rib Fest. On the west side of the river are apartments that overlook the water, along with COSI Columbus, a hands-on science center with more than 300 interactive exhibits. On Theater Row, see the CAPA Summer Movie Series, which features silent-era to 1970s films at the Ohio Theatre, or listen to the harmonious sounds of the Columbus Symphony.

If you need to live south of Downtown Columbus, consider moving to German Village, a 233-acre German-settled neighborhood filled with beautiful restored Italianate homes, charming apartments, unique shops, cafes, bakeries, coffee shops, book stores and art galleries. In the fall, you'll want to visit this area for the German Village Oktoberfest, which entices attendees with music and the smell of bratwurst, sauerkraut and beer.

Ohio State University, one of the largest universities in the nation, is located three miles north of Downtown, and there's a lot more going on here than just school. Catch a football game at the 105,000-seat Ohio Stadium, located along the Olentangy River on the western side of campus. OSU's Wexner Center for the Arts is an internationally renowned arts center presenting exhibitions, music, film and dance. To live near campus, search for apartments along High Street in South Campus Gateway, an area with modern entertainment, shopping and dining options.

For those who must be entertained, look for apartments northwest of downtown Columbus in the Arena District, properly named for its multiple entertainment facilities. Nationwide Arena is home to the Columbus Blue Jackets, Ohio's only National Hockey League team, as well as the Columbus Destroyers, the Arena Football League team. Also, see top touring music acts at the Nationwide Arena and the LC Pavilion, or catch a movie in the Arena Grande Theatre.

With nearly 350 Columbus apartments to choose from, you're sure to find something that you'll love to call home. Search ApartmentGuide.com today for your next - or first - apartment in Columbus.
