Location and price point draw convenience-seekers to North Hilltop
North Hilltop, part of West Columbus's greater Hilltop community, is a long-established neighborhood. Set along narrow city streets, it offers classic, vintage single-family and multifamily homes that are being renovated and brought back to market at competitive prices. Day-to-day, the vibe here is easy-going and practical, with sidewalks connecting to neighborhood parks and essentials, from grocery stores to doctors’ offices. North Hilltop is a short drive from downtown and minutes from major highways.
Vintage houses line North Hilltop's streets.

Renovation projects and move-in-ready homes sell fast
“It’s an old neighborhood, no doubt about that,” says Realtor Chad Campbell of Nobility Realty. “So you get a little more house for a lower price.” Over the years, Campbell has noticed a steady pattern of property rehabilitation, from light renovations to full “teardowns and rebuilds.” As a result, buyers can find both renovation projects and move-in-ready homes. Most of what comes up for sale are single-family homes running from the low $100,000s to the high $200,000s, and duplexes from the mid-$100,000s to the low $300,000s. Like many other Columbus neighborhoods, properties are subject to city and Franklin County taxes. Age and condition strongly affect prices, but regardless, Campbell says listings move quickly.
Theresa Barron, owner-broker of Take A Look Real Estate Brokers, emphasizes that redevelopment is happening gradually, on a house-by-house basis, rather than in a full sweep. She says the neighborhood’s location near Hollywood Casino Columbus, an economic driver for the west side, helps keep buyer interest steady.

Many houses have broad front porches, but little stoops are common too.

Early 1900s houses with classic styles and small lots
Much of North Hilltop’s housing stock dates to the early and mid-20th century. The most common home style here is a stick-built, two-story house, usually featuring old-school Colonial Revival, Tudor Revival and American Foursquare architecture. Lots are compact, often raised above street level with concrete steps down to the sidewalk. Street parking is common, and many homes also offer detached or rear garages. Grassy lawns are usually dotted by a mature tree or two.
How school zoning and choice work for local families
North Hilltop is served by Columbus City Schools, with neighborhood schools including West Broad Elementary School, Westmoor Middle School and West High School. The district provides school choice through a lottery, allowing families to apply to magnet, alternative or non-assigned schools. Placement depends on available space.
Everyday shops on West Broad Street with nightlife nearby
North Hilltop is central to everyday conveniences on West Broad Street, which Barron describes as a bustling main drag lined with mom-and-pop shops, restaurants, banks and other services. For nights out, she points to two popular areas within about 5 miles:
Hollywood Casino Columbus: A regional entertainment hub a little over 2 miles west, offering dining, gaming and event space.
Franklinton: An evolving arts and dining district almost 3 miles east of the neighborhood, known for newer restaurants, breweries and galleries clustered near downtown.
Parks, trails and community spaces for outdoor recreation
Various parks are a short drive from North Hilltop, but residents can also enjoy parks, trails and a community center without leaving the neighborhood. Local options include:
Holton Community Center, a rec center featuring art rooms and a seasonal calendar full of youth programs
Glenview Park, a tree-shaded green space next to the community center with access to the Sullivant Trace Trail
Sullivant Trace Trail, a paved greenway that winds through the woods, connecting Glenview Park and Rhodes Park
Rhodes Park, a sporty hub with facilities for track and field, basketball, soccer and baseball
Camp Chase Trail, a multi-use path running along railroad tracks on the neighborhood’s north side, with additional trail connections nearby

Easy access to downtown Columbus and nearby job centers
North Hilltop is about 5 miles west of downtown Columbus, and West Broad Street is a straight shot there. Additionally, residents are minutes from Interstate 270 for drives to major job centers like Hilliard, Galloway and Grove City – each within roughly 10 miles. Dublin is less than 15 miles away. COTA buses are available, but most locals use a car to get around.
