Located in the triangle between Indianapolis, Louisville and Cincinnati, Columbus is ranked # 6 in the U.S. for architecture innovation and design. The city has public art by renowned artists and nationally recognized gardens and landscaping, which includes an amazing park system. It's a place with a world-class golf course, outstanding athletic facilities, great fun for families and wonderful shopping.

It would be just another small Midwestern city except for the vision and cooperation of public, private and corporate leaders who wanted to make Columbus the best community they could create. Check out the links for more information about this outstanding community.

Columbus won the highly competitive 2006 America in Bloom national competition for the population category 25,001-50,000. Eight core categories were judged, such as heritage, urban forestry and floral displays. The city won on its first attempt, which is a very uncommon achievement. It was also chosen "Best of the Best" for landscape design, citing Irwin Gardens, national landscape design awards and the city's park and trail system.
