Trenton
Neighborhood in Columbus, Ohio
Franklin County 43021, 43074
New housing development
Off Del County Road 605, a new subdivision has started north of the Rattlesnake Ridge Golf Club. Modern architecture styles include a 5-level split along with two-story homes. There are more plots of land available to build. “There has been growth in the area, and that’s due to people moving out to the smaller townships outside of Sunbury, like Trenton Township and Porter to the north,” Gongwer says. Older Cape Cod, ranch-style and log homes are on at least 5 acres, with a two-car garage and at least a partial basement. Price ranges are from $300,000 to $600,000, with more for homes built within the past 30 years with acreage. Ross Road is a main north/south thoroughfare where older homes with many acres can be seen on both sides.

Saddle up and stop horsing around

It’s described as a full-service hunter and jumper facility offering instruction on how to ride a horse, care for the animal and they have horses available for sale or lease. Horses from the facility have won equestrian events all over the country.
County transportation
While the Central Ohio Transportation Authority's, or COTA's, buses only make it a little past the Interstate 270 beltway, the need for public transportation is met with Delaware County Transit. It’s an on-demand ride service that can be scheduled up to two weeks in advance. The bus can take riders anywhere within the county. That includes OhioHealth Grady Memorial Hospital, 17 miles away in Delaware.
Just minutes from the city of Sunbury
On the eastern side of Sunbury are unique, locally owned restaurants, including Firehouse Tavern on South Vernon Street. The inside is themed to honor firefighters as well as the military. Everything from their wing sauce to soups and salad dressing is made from scratch. They have plenty of TVs to catch the game and many different beers on tap. Grocery items can be found at Kroger, with an entrance off Cherry Street, with an on-site fuel center and a Starbucks inside.

GreatSchools:
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.
