Default How's Columbus?

It looks like I am going to be getting a job in Columbus, OH. How is the area out there? Where should I look for housing? How is the cost of living? Anything else I need to know about the area? Thanks for the help guys.

Brian

Get a place outside of the outer belt, preferrably up north . Cost of living isn't bad, downtown can be a blast, and make sure you keep your ride in the garage at night, or it -will- be broken into, eventually.

How are gas prices? What should I expect to pay for a decent one bedroom apartment? Any other tips?

Gas is around $2.30 for 94 (depending on what minute you buy gas, it fluxuates like mad). 1 bedroom probably around $500 - $700 depending on area.

TConsciousStream My wife saw you at Lows last week and was going to ask if you were on the forums but didn't. She remembered your plates.

brian i would say look for a place in the north or a good part of the east.. stay away from south and west. i live about 15 mins south of C-bus looks us up when you get here. Stay away from campus with your car unless you want it to get broke in to and vandalized.

New Albany proper is the only place to live in the east.
Dublin is okay, Powell is my choice. Don't go south of Hayden Run Road or east of Rt 23 and you will be fine

So just got a nice one bedroom apartment in New Albany. So how are the SRT guys out there? Looks like there are some fast SRTs in Ohio. I'm going to be needing something to fill my time and a way to meet some people. What else is there to do?

New Albany? Nice. You're close to me - I'm just a little inwards in Westerville.

Generally speaking, if you're in Columbus and you like to shop or eat, you've come to the right place. We have shopping malls/complexes and restaurants out the wazoo.

If bars are your scene, plenty of places to go for that kind of activity as well. Brewery district. Arena district. And lots of cool little pubs scattered just about everywhere.

Come August, you've got Mopar Nationals at National Trail. Not to mention plenty of other car events out there.

Plus all the other standard activity you could think of.

In honor of a new Columbus resident, perhaps we should organize some sort of get together (like I was talking about months ago and never got around to... oh well). It'd definitely be cool to meet some SRT-4 people.

(I've seen more blue ones the past couple weeks...)
