I just looked back through the results on this one. Not too many silly suggestions for best neighborhood. One person put "Santa Maria" but that was about it. Some of the other poll questions got some much weirder answers, so I'll share those as well. But for those who want to know: <b>4th Place: Downtown 5th Place: Grandview Heights 6th Place: Victorian Village 7th Place: University District / Campus 8th Place: Italian Village 9th Place: Harrison West 10th Place: King Lincoln</b> So… I just looked back through the results on this one.

I did have a small fear that as a joke people would put that "other" neighborhood and I would have to throw my laptop out the window :) Walker, after all the "best of's" are revealed can we get a few of your "favorite" answers?

I mean, they totally revamped all of the infrastructure in the area, built an arena, built a convention center, subsidized the North Market, subsidized the construction of new condos, and even built a bunch of light up arches. "They" even tried to add a Streetcar to connect it to Campus and Downtown. What more is there for "The City" to do? Pay peoples' mortgages? Isn’t “The City’s” work done?

I truly believe that the Short North is one of Ohio's best neighborhoods. I live in the Short North and found that everything is in walking and/ or cycling distance, which is my favorite and only form of exercise. Hats off to Columbus for creating an enviroment comfortable to a diverse mix of urbanphiles. After living in two major cities on the East and West Coast.
