Saint Albans
Neighborhood in Alexandria, Ohio
Licking County 43001, 43062
History or acreage
Driving down Main Street in Alexandria, houses with front porches and classic 19th-century architecture are plentiful, including an 1850 colonial and an 1880 Farmhouse, both with over 2,000 square feet. “There are a certain niche of people who are attracted to homes like that, not necessarily first-time homebuyers,” Kelly says. “With the older homes in town, most of them are in the $300,000 to $350,000 range, depending on the condition. Some may be pushing $400,000, but that’s rare.” A home surrounding the town of Alexandria will be more modern and be on larger lots. A modern contemporary house with almost two acres is close to $900,000 with four bedrooms and over 5,000 square feet of living space. A bi-level that was built in 1957 on 7 acres will be between $500,000 and $600,000. In both areas, the average price per square foot in St. Albans is just over $250.

School-aged children are Viking strong
The schools in the Northridge Local School District are easy to remember. Northridge is the name of the elementary, middle and high schools. The mascot for all three is the Vikings. The district receives a B-minus overall grade on Niche with strong grades for administration, academics and teachers—all earning a B grade. Northridge Elementary School has a 18-to-1 student-to-teacher ratio and is rated a B-minus. Northridge Middle School drama students put on a production of Aladdin Junior in the fall semester of 2023. It’s the classic story of Aladdin that’s geared toward a younger audience. The school has a Niche overall grade of B-minus. There’s a 92% graduation rate for Northridge High School students leading to a B overall grade, including an A-minus for the quality of teachers. Because the need to read and learn does not have an age limit, the Alexandria Public Library on Maple Street has a large collection of books to check out on-site or online. There’s also internet access with word processing programs.

Plenty of opportunity to eat local
Because barbecue isn’t meant to be clean, Dirty Dawgs BBQ Company is in a small building labeled The Dawg Shack on Main Street in Alexandria. It’s a Veteran-owned company that started as a mobile food truck and today it’s a quaint building with mainly outdoor seating. With hot dogs, hamburgers and even quesadillas, there’s much more than barbecue. A steamy cup of coffee or a sweet treat is available at Ragamuffins Coffee. Make a meal out of a visit with bagels, soup or a salad. Brownies, muffins and cookies are also available. Homegrown produce and summertime sweet corn can be purchased at Lynd Fruit Farm. Starting in the midsummer, they offer vegetables that have been grown by the area Amish population, including onions, tomatoes and squash. A large selection of grocery items can be purchased at Kroger, 15 minutes away in the town of Pataskala.

Bedroom community for jobs in the northeast suburbs
The town of Alexandria, with abundant sidewalks, provides a prime opportunity to walk to get around. Living outside the town limits, where there’s more of a rural feel, there are no sidewalks, so having a car is ideal. “Although it takes 25 minutes to get to downtown Columbus, there are many people who work in the technology corridor around New Albany, northeast of Columbus,” Kelly says. Getting to those jobs is about a 15-minute drive.
Hidden away from the main drag
Tucked south of Main Street in the town of Alexandria, there’s plenty of room for a picnic and general outdoor fun at Parker Community Park. There’s a playground, walking trails and a baseball diamond. Finding the entrance to the park is kind of tricky. There is a sign on Main Street that points down a gravel alley that will take you there.

The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
