  1. You are comparing city limits vs Urbanized Areas. Completely different metrics.
  2. So Cbus has the smallest population but the highest density. Is this due to terrain or are the Urban area that much bigger in area that it brings down their numbers? IMO Cbus does feel more compact than it's given credit for.
  3. Surprised to see Cbus at #15. Starting to slowly get expensive here relative to the Midwest.
  4. So can some explain these numbers. As someone who lives in Columbus, I feel like it is more dense than given credit for. What strikes me most is that there is no geography to stop development from the center of downtown and outward in all directions. Cincy has the Ohio river and hilly geography that seems to start and stop development into pockets. Cleveland seems about the same as Cincy but not as hilly. I also feel like Cincy's outerbelt is much larger and further from the city than Cbus. I guess my question is how is Columbus more dense but feels less dense than the other two C's?? Is it that the density is spread out vs concentrated in pockets??
  5. Unfortunately Indochine has closed. The family decided it was time to let go after many years. My family and I were so sad to see it close. The food was always amazing and the family would remember you and occasionally hang out during dinner. This was a true gem in Whitehall.
  6. Surprised Columbus is the highest density. Does terrain play a part in this or is Columbus gaining with infill. Also, over 10% percent density increase seems decent and it would be interesting to compare this to other cities over the last 10 years. Ithought Cleveland had some infill going on, so I'm suprised to see a drop. I thought the losses were more at the county level.
  7. Are these positive or negative numbers? I get the 2009-2019 census are gains but then I lose you on if the others are gains or losses.
  8. No way. Columbus will continue to be a magnet for Ohio and people in the Midwest/Northeast. The best days are still to come in my opinion.

  10. Hi all. Just sent an email as well. I am a resident of Bexley but I would love to see each part of Columbus become more dense and urban friendly. Having the 2 story Giant Eagle here, has been fantastic. Bexley and GE did a great job of putting the small parking area behind and the grocery right up to Main St.. I walk, bike or drive to this grocery multiple times a week and it fits in with Bexley perfectly. I believe something simlar can and should be done at this site as well.
  11. Nice to see an increase and looks great. Build it now!
  12. Delaware is currently the 13th most populated county. If growth rates stayed the same for the next ten years, Delware and Warren county would be neck and neck for 10th place in Ohio. I would call that a significant move and an interesting one to watch over the next few years.
  13. As maddening as GV can be with its no no no to development, this is the reason the review boards exist.
  14. Easton and Polaris have done a great job of becoming destination places for people from all over Ohio and beyond. Just yesterday friends of mine, drove down from Michigan to Christmas shop at Polaris. I think to most people, it doesnt make sense to TIF these areas but if look at the wider impact they have especially in the areas surrounding Easton, you can see why they should. It only helps to bring the surrounding area up. I woudn't call this gentrification but a general improvement to infastructure and possibly safety to residents living nearby.
  15. Columbus has a lot of room to fill. The trend is starting to go higher in most proposals. We are not Austin or Nashville but we are doing very well given our location. This is only the beginning and soon those blank lots will be filled and the only option will be to go higher.
