What it’s like
The place. Minerva Park is a small village in Franklin County where nearly everyone owns the home they live in, far more than across the county as a whole. Household incomes run well above the county's, and fewer residents live below the poverty line than you might expect. A good share of adults hold a four-year degree, and the winters are cold and snowy while the summers turn warm.
Work. Residents work mostly in schools, hospitals and social care, followed by professional and business services, shops, and restaurants, hotels and entertainment. Across Franklin County, some of the largest workplaces are Ohio State University, Nationwide Children's Hospital and Columbus City Schools. The typical commute is a modest one, and a fair number of residents work from home.
Things to do. For a day out, the Columbus Museum of Art and the Wexner Center for the Arts are both a short drive away. Inniswood Botanical Garden and Nature Preserve is also close by, and the Columbus Zoo and Aquarium is a longer drive away.
