Safety and walk ability.

It’s walkability, public schools, farmers market and sense of community. Also programming of public spaces.

The community that spans from young to old and has many opportunities for people to engage and interact. Some of my favorites are the farmers market and summer concerts on the green.

I love the quaint small town vibe. I don’t want this to become mid-rise. Let’s keep the 2 and 3 story scale, okay? Thank you!

Convenience of walkable community with out the congestion of downtown

The schools. The people. The smaller town feel even though the area is getting larger.

Up town, being able to walk to food and drinks with out needing a car. As well riding to the bike trail without having to use busy streets to access the trail. community events such as Sunday fundays , farmers markets, Sunday concerts. The school system that students can walk from their homes to school and back. Parks and green spaces that are all around the community. Family centered community. The Worthington Community center. Also the yard waste drop off is such a nice perk. Lastly the DORA district having a drink out side on the street is a big part of community.

The local community and walkability of old worthington. They protect history while still moving forward to be progressive and stand for what is right. I think you can see this in the community, architecture, schools, and local businesses.

It’s great bedroom community atmosphere and the strict architectural design and rules to keep and give Worthington a most unique and distinctive character compared to the rest of the Columbus suburbs . It’s a great place to live and raise a family in a safe environment

Walkability, mature trees, the ravine, the fun businesses downtown, the green as a community “hub”, excellent city services, a community that is welcoming and inclusive.

Worthington is a safe, family friendly, walkable community with a history of New England charm. We sit on only 5.5 square miles, and our government (city and school district), combined with thoughtful zoning and prudent architectural review processes both protect our past and provide the foundation for future progress. The city’s approach to developing a new comprehensive vision/plan is an example of how we move forward as a community–TOGETHER !

I love the quaintness and the “Norman Rockwell” feel of downtown Worthington – love that there is minimal traffic issues -so many amenities within walking distance (retail, restaurants, grocery)

Sense of community due to size, ease of access without heavy traffic. Great library, schools. Building height is fitting for our town
