A tranquil hamlet just minutes outside of Columbus.

Commuter Suburb Affordable

A small and fairly isolated community about twenty minutes southwest of downtown Columbus, Galloway is an affordable apartment-renting option for folks in the Columbus area who want to escape the more crowded environment of the more urbanized areas nearby. The community is primarily residential, but it’s close enough to easily take advantage of the shopping, dining, and entertainment closer to Columbus proper. The west side of Galloway is largely taken up by Battelle Darby Creek Metro Park, a sprawling nature preserve full of creeks and trails to explore.
