Upper Arlington has top-rated schools near Columbus
Upper Arlington – lovingly called U.A. by locals – comes up a lot when talking about Columbus suburbs. It is one of the more expensive areas, but its convenient location, top-rated schools and close-knit community make it worth the price. You can pass the time at local parks or by taking a class at the community center, or explore one of the many shops along Lane Avenue. Downtown Columbus is only a few minutes away.
UA blends suburban charm and urban amenities near Columbus.
Littleton's Market is along Tremont Road.

Historic homes, ranch-style houses and new construction are available
Rolling hills and well-maintained properties give this Columbus suburb its charm. "While you're close to the city, you have tree-lined streets," says Kelly McCafferty, Realtor with e-Merge Real Estate, who has been working in the area for about 10 years. "You see families walking down the street, you see joggers everywhere and children riding their bicycles." You can find a mix of homes in the area, including the Colonial and Tudor Revivals that have earned the Upper Arlington Historic District a place on the National Register of Historic Places. There is also a plethora of split-levels and ranch-style homes. Much of the newer construction references older styles. There are also townhouses and condos.
Grand homes like Colonial Revivals are common.
Modern condos are readily available.

Upper Arlington is one of the more expensive Columbus suburbs
“I would say that the Upper Arlington area and school district appeals to a large number of buyers,” McCafferty says. “They have elevated home prices, compared to some of the other communities.” Prices are higher than in Grandview Heights, another sought-after Columbus suburb. Single-family homes that are 3,000 square feet or less generally cost between the high $300,000s and the low $800,000s. If you want something larger, you can expect to pay between the low $800,000s and over $2.5 million. Condos and townhouses range from the mid-$100,000s to the low $800,000s.
Upper Arlington High School has an impressive athletics department.
Top-rated schools have a strong athletics department
Students attend top-rated Upper Arlington Schools. "The city is a haven for people with children who want high-level academics, college preparation and robust athletics," McCafferty says. "Upper Arlington High School also has a unique draw for athletics because it has a crew team, and they participate in annual regattas. Water sports are a big deal here with the Scioto River nearby." The high school's athletics department has won over 150 state championships since the 1930s. The district offers school choice through intradistrict enrollment applications.
Minutes from downtown Columbus and The Ohio State University
One of the main draws of U.A. is its location. “It’s both close enough and far enough from downtown, and it’s also right down the street from The Ohio State University (OSU),” McCafferty says. While Central Ohio Transit Authority buses stop in the city, McCafferty says, “I would imagine the majority of people are either commuting by vehicle or bicycle.” Lane Avenue offers a direct commute for drivers. In less than 10 miles, or 15 minutes, you can be downtown. Ohio State's campus is about 2 miles, or 10 minutes, away.
Local parks and a community center offer plenty of amenities
Upper Arlington has no shortage of things to do, with over 20 city parks and plenty of other recreational amenities. Options include:
Sunny 95 Park, which has a roller hockey rink and a fishing pond
Thompson Park, where you can play baseball or explore the nature area
Fancyburg Park, which includes tennis courts and shuffleboards
The Bob Crane Community Center, which hosts activities for all ages
Scioto Country Club, a private club with an 18-hole golf course
Northam Park is a perfect place for a walk with your dog.
Thompson Park features a walking trail.

Events like the Labor Day Arts Festival foster community
Upper Arlington's close community is on full display at the city's many events. One of the most popular is the Labor Day Arts Festival, which brings over 15,000 visitors to the area every year. "There's a wide variety of vendors that come from all over different states," McCafferty says. "I remember one year there were these Amish-made brooms that were very popular." The Fourth of July is another big day for the city, with a parade and fireworks show. There are also recurring events, like a concert series and the Upper Arlington Farmers Market. "One of the things I think is really great about the farmers market is that it's on Wednesday evenings rather than the typical Saturday morning, so you're not competing with some of the other farmers markets in the area," McCafferty says.
Lane Avenue and other shopping centers have groceries and more
Between The Shops at Lane Avenue and shopping centers along Tremont Road, residents can find everything they need, including:
Groceries from Whole Foods
Clothing at chain stores like LOFT
Cocktails at Hudson 29 Kitchen + Drink
Salads or sandwiches at Brassica
Coffee from Crimson Cup Coffee Shop
McCafferty also recommends Littleton's Market along Tremont Road. "They have a wonderful outdoor seating area," she says. "But, there is also a little deli area, wine to go and a little market. You can sit there, hang out and enjoy the day, or you can do a bit of grocery shopping."
Hudson 29 Kitchen + Drink is a community favorite.
Morettie's, one of the oldest restaurants in Upper Arlington, serves Italian cuisine.
