The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

Property Ratings at Essex
I love the Grandview area and enjoy all the activity. When I decided that I wanted to live in the area, my biggest challenge was finding a place that was quiet enough to work from home but close enough that I could still enjoy everything Grandview has to offer. At Essex, I found just that!! The building is smaller than most communities but luxurious and offers everything I need! The Starbucks Coffee Bar starts off my day and occasionally I’ll even take advantage of working outside in the beautiful courtyard. Even if I have to go into the office Downtown, it’s a short commute with only a 9 min drive. Fabulous location, amazing and attentive staff, always clean and friendly neighbors. If you’re searching for a new place and you enjoy Grandview as much as I do, Essex is the ONE!
Essex is located in a fantastic area in Grandview. Its proximity to all my favorite places is amazing and allows me to enjoy my time after work. In addition to the great location, the management is excellent and truly cares about its residents. Waking up in the morning to a clean clubhouse with freshly stocked coffee is the highlight of my day.
I have loved my experience with Essex! My apartment has great natural light and windows! This was a must for me! I love getting coffee in the mornings and the Peloton membership is the best! If you're looking for a great apartment, pick here!
The amenities are super clean and so well maintained. Kourtney has been super attentive and great to work with while searching and signing a lease. The apartments have tall ceilings, top of the line appliances, and nice attention to the detail when designing things like windows, the barn doors, counter tops, sinks etc!
Living at Essex as been a great experience so far! All the staff are amazing and very attentive to the residents in the building!
I cannot recommend Essex Apartments highly enough! This apartment building is a hidden gem near Ohio State University, making it incredibly convenient for my son, who is studying at OSU. The location is perfect, just minutes away from the School of Medicine and Natural Sciences. My son absolutely loves living here. The BBQ area and indoor patio are his favorite spots to relax and socialize. The facilities are always impeccably clean, and the staff is kind, respectful, and always ready to help. The private, gated garage adds an extra layer of security, and package deliveries are managed with a secure box system, complete with notification messages. One of the best features is the complimentary coffee, water, and variety of teas available to residents. Essex also offers numerous other amenities that enhance the living experience. What sets Essex apart is its small, close-knit community. The leasing office staff knows each resident by name and organizes multiple activities to show how much they value their tenants. Safety and comfort are clearly top priorities for Essex management, making it a truly outstanding place to live. Highly recommend!
I can’t say enough good things about Essex! I moved in 2 months ago and have loved it. As someone who’s new to Columbus, the location is perfect. My unit is exactly what I was looking for: brand new, modern, sleek, and a great layout. The amenities and resident events are awesome and Kristine & Loni are the best!! Highly recommend!!
So far I love living here!! The management team has always been quick to respond to any and all of my questions. They have monthly resident events and the apartments are absolutely beautiful inside. Love love love!
This location is great , walking distance to so much stuff! Also, the community is brand new, clean, and staff is very nice.
