Riverside drive is named so because it runs right along side the Scioto River. Driving on this road you will see a gorgeous view of the river and probably boats and people water skiing or jet skiing. But you will look over to the other side of the river and see the most gigantic houses you've ever seen right on the river. Whoever lives there can walk out their back door walk 20 yards and jump in the river. To the east you will drive by any number of roads that will take you back into nice good communities full of your average houses with sidewalks, driveways, front and back yards, people walking their dogs, kids playing in their yards. Just an all around good feel to it

High Street has got to be the most prolific road in Columbus, OH. Also known as route 23, it runs from one end of the city to the other without stopping or changing direction. It is a straight shot from the north to the south and vice versa. On High St you can find anything. I mean absolutely anything. Just to be general i'll start with shopping, food, gas, houses, apartments, condos, restaurants, bars, clubs, municipal building, banks, sky scrapers, book stores, convience stores, liquor stores, army surplus store, shoe store, grocery store etc etc etc. and probably every variation of the already mentioned.

The Heart of Columbus is the Ohio State Buckeyes and their home is Ohio Stadium which is located on Woody Hayes Drive. I drove on this road every day for four years when I went to school at OSU. I walked on this road every saturday during football season and waded my way through an ocean of scarlet and gray people, venders, t-shirt/hats/hotdog stands. What can I say theres nothing like going to an Ohio State Buckeyes game in Ohio Stadium. Everything on OSU Campus is less than a 15 minute walk from here and it runs right over the olentangy river. Theres hotels, dorms, apartments, houses, food, sports bars, you name it

Lane Ave literally runs from the scioto river in the west all the way past ohio state campus to summit rd on the east. W Lane Ave splits Upper Arlington in two. To the north you have the newer smaller houses and to the south you have Old Arlington which contains big old mansions really beautiful landscaping. Then as you go east you'll come a great shopping center, restaurants, groceries, gas, tanning, anything. As soon as you pass over Kenny Rd you come up on Ohio State Campus which is always good.

If Upper Arlington (a suburb on the northwest area of central columbus, OH) were a human being, Tremont Rd would be its spinal cord. It literally runs the entire length of the city from north to south. However its pretty much the same type of living area, people, and nice houses, condos and apartment complexes the whole way through. It runs through a couple shopping centers with good places to eat, some fast food some sit down restaurants a good mix of both and a couple gas stations.

Laura Dr is a small street in a large community on the east side of columbus just outside the outerbelt. It is a middle to high working class community packed with beautiful luxurious homes. Just a stone throw away from an upscale golf course and minutes away from Easton Town Center (huge outdoor shopping center with tons of nice restaurants, movie theater and things to do).

This is a beatiful, peaceful quiet neighborhood with friendly neighbors and big front and back yards but not more than ten yards away from the house next door. There is Woodside Greenpark just a short jog away. You can hike there, take the kids to the playground, walk the dog. All this and your still just 15-20 minutes away from downtown and Ohio State Campus.

Hart Rd is located on the southwest quadrant of Columbus. Its far enough away from any major downtown or suburb but not too far. The houses are nice and spread out kinda far apart. You almost feel like your driving through the rural country but your not. No traffic on this road. Not a very long road. Lots of parks and a huge lake not but 2 minutes away.

Theres not a lot to say about this road. Its not very long and theres nothing on it. Sawyer runs right next to Columbus International Airport and the road is literally about the length of the runways. Sawyer dead ends into S Hamilton on the east and runs into the airport parking lot on the west at about the midpoint of the runways. This road is just there to take you to the airport parking lot.

The cost of living in this neighborhood is cheap. But you get what you pay for. The houses look run down and trashy. Crime is very prominent. S Cypress is a one way street. It runs from I-70 on the south end up to W Broad St on the north. 2-5 minute drive to downtown depending on traffic lights and where your going. Lots of traffic lights on W Broad but not much traffic to slow you down. 10 minute drive to the bars and nightlife downtown. 15 minute drive to Ohio State University Campus.

Adams Road is a great road to take if just want to get from here to there or if you want someplace to go either to shop or eat or relax. Adams has the best of both worlds. Theres not much traffic and the stop lights are usually in your favor so if your just passing through you might go 35mph the whole way and never stop once. However it is a great area, there are lots of little things to do like shop, or sit down at restaurant. Not many bars or houses on the street but lots of houses with families nearby just off the street and an elementary school.

WInton Drive is a long road that cuts straight through cincinnati, running directly north and south, from 75 to 275. The road itself is 10 miles long cutting through many of cincinnati's nice little suburbs. Starting at Spring Grove going north you'll drive through winton place, winton terrace, finneytown, greenfield village, north hill estates, wintondale, brentwood, pleasant hills, wildbrook acres, and the lovely greenhills. You might see any number of things from kids playing in their yard, a lady walking a dog, a gas station, a nice restaurant, you name it.

Monte Vista Drive is part of a recently constructed area on the far west side of Cincinnati. It is about a 20 minute drive to downtown depending on traffic but a very nice upscale living area. There many homes and condos in the area (expensive but very nice). It is still fairly quiet and not too much traffic but as more people are finding about it, more people are moving there. A great place to buy a house and raise a family, with sidewalks and grass yards.

Liberty is a long road and one of the main streets near downtown Cincinnati. Although E Liberty St begins at the intersection of Vine St. There not many houses on this street, but mainly gas stations, corner stores what have you. The area is known for having a higher crime rate that other areas of the city as I would suggest its not a good place to live but if you can handle it the rent is cheaper.

Belvedere Street is a small street in Mt. Adams, a suburb in Cincinnati. It is very close to downtown as it is only about a 15 minute walk to the Great American Ballpark. It is a nice little neighborhood with lots of thing to do. There are local bars, restaurants and shops and a park nearby. Only problem is its not a one way street but only has enough room one car at a time, with cars parked on both sides of the street. Also a great place for dogs.

Homewood Rd is a very homey place to live. It is a great place go jogging, biking, or walking a dog. Its hills make a great workout and great scenery. There is a park within walking distance with a big fountain. Its just a really nice neighborhood with really friendly people.

One of my favorite streets in Mt. Adams. There always something to do, something to see or something going on, on this street when the weekend rolls around. There are lots of little ma and pop shops, from cafes, restaurants, bars and all kinds of different stores for whatever your shopping needs.

Oregon St is a small little one way street in the middle of downtown. You will never get in a traffic jam on this street but you might as soon as you turn off it. Oregon St is in a busy area, like most all other downtown living areas, but offers great views of downtown cincinnati and the Ohio River is a stone-throw away.

Arborrun Dr. is a small road in an upscale part of cincinnati. It runs North to South in a wealthy area with big, very nice and expensive houses. It is only about 550 meters from the Ohio River, a great place to feed ducks and go fishing with kids. Although it is about 8 miles from downtown, which depending on who you are could either be a plus or minus.

Eggleston Ave runs Northwest to Southeast. It is only about 800 meters long. On the SE end it dead ends into Pete Rose Way which connects to Riverside Dr. named so because its literally right next to the ohio river and runs parallel with it. On the NW it dead ends into Central Pkwy but don't try to get there going NW because Eggleston hits Broadway it turns into a one way street. Not a good living area due to the highways that run right over top of it.
