Hilliard

west suburb · 43026

Hilliard is Columbus's tidy western answer to the question of where young families park themselves before deciding whether to stay forever. Old Hilliard gives you a walkable few blocks of brick storefronts, the Heritage Rail Trail handles the daytime date, and Bridge Street is a short hop east when you need actual range. The dating pool skews engaged, married, or recently relocated for a job at one of the corporate campuses off Cemetery Road. Expect breweries over wine bars, patios over speakeasies, and a notable shortage of anyone who wants to drive downtown twice in one week.
