Northwood Park is located in the University District of Columbus, Ohio, just to the west of U.S. 23 and Interstate 71 and a few miles north of Interstate 670. Only about 3 miles north from Downtown Columbus, Northwood Park offers an easy commute to work and close access to Ohio State campus activities and attractions.

Northwood Park, also known as the Northwood and Oakland Avenue Area, was one of the first subdivisions developed in the first half of the century on the then "outskirts" of the city of Columbus. With a strong sense of community, large homes, beautiful gardens and brick alleys, the neighborhood rounds out Ohio State off-campus living with a family friendly environment close to football games and other university fun. Whether you take this neighborhood as a permanent resident or renter, you'll find a great local community with arts, events and activities for everyone.
