That's part of why the word about Columbus might never really get out. Or if it does, it’s gonna take a long time. Refugees and international university students are notable exceptions to the rule ( both of which also live here in large numbers), but for the most part, Columbus, Ohio is full of people that were born in Ohio. Nightlife, restaurants, coffeeshops, music, academia-Columbus really does have it all! The one thing that you won't find much of in Columbus is people who are not from Ohio.
Columbus is the rising star of the Midwest, bustling with young people and new businesses.
