Despite Ashville’s modest size, there’s a lively community here that frequently makes headlines for annual festivals like the Fourth of July celebration and the Viking Festival. Residents enjoy a close-knit community, affordable homes and apartment rentals, and a rural, laidback atmosphere.

Many residents head into Circleville for a greater selection of stores and shops. Drive another 16 miles south and you’ll find yourself in an expansive collection of national parks and state forests. Columbus is just a 30-minute drive away should you want to counter the outdoors with a day in the city.
