On Foot & by Bike

MidTown includes historic residential streets and several everyday destinations. Walkability changes from block to block, so check crossings, sidewalks and trail access from the rental itself.

Walk

Wynnton Road & 13th Street

These corridors link shops, restaurants and services. Take a scouting walk from a prospective home and compare the crossings you would use regularly.

Park & culture

Weracoba Park & the Museum

Bike

The paved trail connects parts of Columbus toward the riverfront. Find the nearest safe access point before relying on it for a regular ride.

MidTown includes several smaller historic neighborhoods; the feel of a walk or ride depends on the street and route, not just the neighborhood name.

By Car

Wynnton Road and 13th Street point toward Uptown; Macon Road and I-185 connect other parts of Columbus. Drive times depend on the specific home, traffic and destination.
