[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Check out Upper Arlington, Grandview, Worthington or Bexley. Columbus is a very family friendly city. Dublin is also a nice suburb further out but leans more conservative, the Muirfield section is built around a Jack Nicklaus golf course. New Albany is an exurb, but I would steer clear of there unless you’d like interacting with Les Werner and his cronies.

Columbus Academy and Columbus School for Girls are both independent single sex schools. Wellington also has a good reputation.

The weather is meh. Kind of overcast much if the year, but otherwise similar to the DC area.[/quote]

Columbus native here. This is all on point. It’s way better than when I left and I wish the Columbus of my childhood had been as diverse and worldly as things there are now.

I went to one of the Worthington high schools and have many friends from my HS sport who went to Upper Arlington. I think anywhere in Upper Arlington boundaries is where I would go if I moved back home again with neighborhoods zoned for Thomas Worthington HS (specifically the areas around  Worthingway MS, Evening Street ES, and Old Worthington in general) a close second. It sounds like your kids are old enough that swim clubs aren’t going to be a dealbreaker, but Worthington and UA both have great city pools. Country clubs and swim clubs are more complicated but still easier to access than out here.

It is weirdly gloomy there. Winters are pretty mild and similar to DC, but ice storms are quite common and you won’t be escaping humidity or bugs. Depending on your lifestyle you may feel a little trapped being far from the water.[/quote]

To be sure, the lake is 2 hours away.[/quote]
