Neighborhood

The historic neighborhood of Franklinton dates back to 1797, when Lucas Sullivant, a surveyor by profession, laid out the small town, now a suburb located just a few miles west of Downtown Columbus across the Scioto River. Some of the original houses and buildings still stand. Today, residents take pride in their community's diversity and gladly welcome new neighbors looking for affordable apartments and homes with easy access to all the amenities of downtown.

For a little adventure and discovery, tourists and locals head to the popular COSI, the Center for Science and Industry. Children and families often spend the day there, interacting with the science exhibits, learning about the solar system in the in-house planetarium, or watching science-related movies on the giant IMAX screen. Outdoor enthusiasts also like to frequent Cody Park, a 0.29-acre swath of green space where visitors can sit and relax on the benches while watching the kids enjoy the playground.

School data provided by 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.

Great Property!

Loved living here until a purchased a home and no longer needed an apartment!

6/11/24
DO NOT MOVE HERE

This place has roaches bad!!! People let dogs pee in the hallway, you can’t contact the leasing office because they are only open 2 hours of the day!!!

Property Manager at Garden Heights Apartments, Responded To This Review

Thank you for you review. We’re sorry you had a bad experience. We are looking into this issue and hope to resolve it promptly.

9/7/22
Do not live here.

This is by far the worst apartment I have ever lived in. I had to terminate my lease early due to hazardous waste leaking into my apartment from the upstairs bathroom. The building is not clean and unsafe. They refuse to fix anything. You can barely get in contact with a leasing agent because they never answer the phone. These photos are not what these apartments look like at all! Do not move here. This place is a scam and not worth a dime of what you pay.

12/23/21

3/21/20
