Treasures

The kindness of most of my neighbors and location

It’s where my mom grew up, where I grew up, and where my kids are growing up. I treasure the schools and the river and the libraries.

Community feel, downtown with restaurants and shops, parks, bike path, trees, sustainability efforts, our amazing schools, our amazing library, walkable

Walkability,
Quaint spaces, green parks, mature trees,
An abundance of wildlife, friendly neighbors,
Farmers market,
Local restaurants.

Safety. Community. Schools. Businesses.

Walk ability around downtown Worthington. Old Worthington Library. Historically multiracial and accepting. Limited advertising and signage. Easy accessibility to other parts of central Ohio. Good schools with alternative options. Unique neighborhoods with limited cookie-cuttter homes

The welcoming, inclusive community is what makes Worthington great. There are things that other city do better (shopping, dining, etc.) but nothing tops the vibe of our little city.

The history, sense of community

Walking around uptown – quaint town with great spots for food – great schools –

I treasure the historic, small-town community vibe of Worthington, even though our our community is part of a much bigger metropolitan area. I treasure our beautiful neighborhoods with mature trees, our parks (and especially the Olentangy Trail), and the level of community involvement and activities, such as the Farmers’ Market, July 4th celebrations, Concerts on the Green, etc.

Diversity, great schools, amenities of the suburbs but close to the city, down to earth neighbors, old Worthington businesses and charm, farmers market, the pool, the rec center, the library.

The character of north high street, the people and community promotes the arts like have the mcconell arts center, arts festival,I’ve music at the lawn.

Close knit neighborhoods, great city services, beautiful trees and wildlife, great schools.

Inclusion. Every June when the pride flags go up, it just makes me feel so much joy every day as I drive through old Worthington. I am not personally lgbtq but I love the message it sends. We are diverse and want to love & include everyone. Exactly what a good community should be.

Kind people, downtown, close to trails

Quiet, space, everyone in the neighborhood knowing each other, knowing all the kids in the neighborhood.

No over crowded, no cars lining the streets. Green space.

Ssfety, Parks, recreation, jobs, schools, affordable diverse food.

Safety, walk ability, schools, library, downtown, sidewalks, restaurants, festivals, music, community centers, affordable living, the Olentangy river, history, diversity, trees,

The downtown area!

I like that we do not have a lot of sprawling, dense, apartment buildings. I like our single family homes with green lawns and dense trees. It’s honestly what keeps us from going elsewhere, you definitely do not find established trees with new communities. I love the wildlife, we regularly see opossums, deer, raccoons, birds, and rabbits, to name a few, and have seen fox, coyotes and even a mink. It’s amazing and unique and I would hate to lose it. I like how walkable our community is.

It’s neighborhood feel and the ability to walk to so many places.

I love how walkable it is and bike friendly. I enjoy the schools being so close by

Its history, its central location

The small town feel even as we’re surrounded by development. The sense of community that still remains.

The small town feeling. The appreciation for the environment and green spaces. City services.
