To read some of the posts on here, you'd think Columbus was some third world crime and poverty ridden city...nothing could be further from the truth.

A visit is much different than living here....  |

The Midland area of Columbus has a lot of neighborhoods in that price range. Garrett Creek is a nice neighborhood. Schools are very good in this district as well. Do you guys prefer living in the city or in more of a suburban type area? Columbus has great intown neighborhoods as well. |

Well, right now, we live in a town of 19,000 (that was 13,000 when we moved here 7 years ago), but we moved here from a town of 125,000. That's probably pretty small compared to cities out there, so, i guess i would say we're more suburban type people. I think my kids would love to be "city people", though! I'm a teacher, so a good school district is really important! Thank you so much for your info!

On August 8, 2008 this poll was put up for votes. Drum roll please, and a grand total of 37 votes. Things are rolling right along. You might get more votes if you stand on the corner of Cusseta Road and Brown Avenue or you can try to get votes from some of my neighbors in Green Island Hills.  Thirty-seven votes!!!! Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha!!!! Happy Easter, Bunny Day or Easter Egg day. |

I think we all can agree that you don't live in Green Island Hills.
You do seem to know alot about south columbus and the cusseta rd brown avenue area...coincidence?....I don't think so.
The joke may actually be on you. 
I think the voting RESULTS are more important than the amount of votes don't you? |

To move someplace without visiting several times first, is one of the most irresponsible things an adult can do, unless you are in the military and you have no say so. But, to pack up and move yourself and your family without giving any thought to some of the pitfalls of your new location is bordering on stupidity and foolishness and you basically deserve what you get. Happy Easter, Bunny Day, Egg Day, Passover...
I'm sorry, I could not resist the carrot you dangled before me.  |
