Low Columbus taxes and high-quality Worthington schools
Westworth Village, a northern Columbus neighborhood, is named for its location between Westerville and Worthington. It’s a convenient location for commuters and frequent shoppers, accessible to Interstates 71 and 270 and the nearby Polaris Fashion Park. “It’s a unique neighborhood because you have a Worthington mailing address and are within the highly regarded Worthington schools. But you still get the city of Columbus’s services,” says Realtor Paul George, a lifelong local with Keller Williams Greater Columbus Realty. Realtor Jennifer Kessel-White of Keller Williams Classic Properties Realty adds that the school zoning is “the biggest perk of the neighborhood.” However, residents can enjoy it without having to pay Worthington taxes. “Normally, the taxes in Worthington are thousands of dollars more than in Columbus,” she says.
Five public schools within 3 miles
Niche gives the Worthington City School District an A-minus overall, emphasizing quality teachers and college preparation. Westworth Village is split into two elementary and middle school enrollment zones, one on either side of Worthington Galena Road. Students to the west attend Slate Hill Elementary School and Worthingway Middle, both with B-pluses from Niche. Wilson Hill Elementary and Kilbourne Middle, each with an A-minus, serve those to the east. All Westworth Village teens are zoned for Thomas Worthington High School, also rated an A-minus. Seniors at Worthington High have month-by-month checklists that prepare them for graduation and for picking a college. All schools serving the neighborhood operate within about 3 miles.

Recently updated 1980s homes
Most Westworth Village houses were built in the 1980s and feature common architectural styles from that period. These include Colonial Revival, split-level, bi-level and ranch-style designs. “Most of the homes there have been fairly recently updated because they’re a little bit older,” Kessel-White says. “At this point, you’ll see that they’ve been at least updated one time.” Contemporary condominiums and duplexes with attached garages also appear around the neighborhood, with two-bedroom condos starting at around $200,000. For the average property value of $313,000, homebuyers might find a three-bedroom bi-level house. Four-bedroom split-levels over 1,500 square feet can cost up to $400,000.

Local and downtown work opportunities
Downtown Columbus commuters have about a 14-mile drive south. Bus stops appear along Sancus Boulevard to the west, serving public transportation users. However, many work opportunities are available much closer to the neighborhood. The JPMorgan Chase McCoy Center employs thousands of locals less than 1 mile northwest. “There are a lot of office buildings and medical buildings in the Worthington and Westerville areas,” Kessel-White adds.
