Homes for Rent in Columbus, OH

Columbus, Ohio is the capital and the largest city in the state. It is known for having an eclectic variety of architectural styles and a diverse mixture of residential communities. Rental houses in Columbus range from historic single-family homes to luxurious estates.

Downtown Columbus is divided into three main districts and is home to some of the largest buildings in the city. Although there are several apartment complexes and condominiums in this area, it is best known as a center for academic and commercial development. For a more historic atmosphere, Italian Village, Old Oaks, and the Brewery District have retained much of their European roots. Woodland Park combines these two worlds, offering everything from small studios and penthouses to spacious Tudor and Victorian homes for rent. If you prefer to be close to the Scioto River, however, Franklinton lies just west of Downtown. Communities in the University District, such as Dennison Place and Indianola Forest, are a popular choice for students as well.

In terms of economic diversity, Columbus is considered one of the top cities for business and holds a large stake in many well-established industries, from banking and aviation to fashion and hospitality. Major corporate organizations also have headquarters based in Columbus, creating hundreds of new job opportunities each year. Research and educational facilities, such as the Battelle Memorial Institute and Ohio State University, employ a significant number of residents. Other national powerhouses located in this region include JP Morgan Chase, NetJets and Chemical Abstracts Service, all of which have a reputation as top local employers. As it stands, the job market in Columbus is promising and offers plenty of options for long-term careers.
