What other people say about Columbus “The Buckeye State’s capital—affordable, bustling, and young, with a big chunk of its population squarely under 40—is seeing an uptick in interest as a destination for the nation’s hipster elite, whether it's to live or explore over a long weekend.” National Geographic Traveler “It's not a stretch to call Columbus the "Nashville of the Midwest." Beyond a vibrant songwriting community (catch rising stars at Natalie's Coal Fired Pizza), you'll see live acts at many restaurants, jazz clubs, and various venues around town.” Southern Living “10 Great American Shopping Streets” USA Today about the Short North Arts District
