Default Westerville: It's Just White?

I looked at the Westerville website and was appalled at what I saw. It's Just White? I took a screenshot of it for personal records, but when I checked it the next day it said "It's Just Right."

So which is it? Westerville website

Why don't you ask the webmaster for an explanation and let us know what they tell you, instead of trying to work other Internet citizens into a lather over this?

I used to know people who worked at City Hall in Westerville and they were fine folks, so I resent the implication that there is large-scale institutional racism in Westerville.

My guess is hackers got in there and changed it.

Regardless of the cause, an Internet "jury" is not going to give you the answer you seek.

I'd agree. Not to mention, that the Westerville School District (which does include a portion of Columbus) is pretty diverse.

Gnubler, this ain't P&OC, and you should contact those folks if you want to discuss their website. Per this site's data, Westerville is not "all white".

People... Get a sense of humor this is HIGH LARIOUS. Nobody said anything to imply "large-scale institutional racism in Westerville." And yes, the area of Westerville north of 270 is very white and staunchly conservative. So whether it's a mistake or a freudian slip, it's still funny in a sense.

Thank you gnubler for the screenshot.

Bexley! A person living in Bexley is living in a small suburb of innercity columbus surrounded by the heard of the traditional African-American neighborhoods of the city of Columbus. Bexley is literally surrounded by the major Columbus African American neighborhoods. Now, the neighborhoods have many other diverse groups, but they are known as african american too. They include, Olde Town East, King-Lincoln District, Berwick, Eastmoor, and Franklin Park. These neighborhoods surround Bexley so i really do not see how people living in Bexley are racist. They are literally coexisting with African-Americans on their doorstep.
