Treasures

Schools, Walkable, Parks, Green Spaces, Recreation, Library, Downtown Shops

First and foremost—the wonderful schools and everyone who works with Worthington schools to make them what they are. I also treasure the feeling of community, living in a bike-able and walkable city with local businesses.

walk to downtown; great location; good schools

The sense of community that I feel in my neighborhood.

Walking all over (though sidewalks randomly end), friendly neighbors, farmers market, library

Something I think Worthington benefits from is the diversity in building types/zoning, there are multi-family units, single family homes, a commercial district and this leads to a diversity in people living in Worthington which is a treasure for all. I also love how Worthington is anchored by the Olentangy river and multi-use trail, it is great that there are multiple places to enter the trail from different neighborhoods.

Community events, parks and recreation, schools, independent shops and eateries, and general feeling of community.

Community, walkability, the schools, having things to do with family & friends, non-commercial shops & restaurants

Family events and community members, the people are great!

The character of the neighborhoods and the convenience to downtown Columbus.

How we keep growing and improving.

Walkability, community events, beautiful historic district

I have lost faith in Worthington because they are a do nothing but survey and study city.

We have a lot of green space, playgrounds, and opportunities for outdoor experiences.

The small town ambiance and its historic look.

The walkability, local businesses, plenty of green space and parks for my children to play in. I also appreciate the access to amenities (community center, pools) and a strong school system.
