    "Columbus has a micro climate that is a little milder so you will see more flowering plantings survive including the beautiful Red Bud tree's. Kid friendly, animal friendly and very low crime. Historic downtown with beautiful buildings. City activities almost every single weekend. Park that has frequent live music that can be heard thoughout town. Fabulous 4th of July fireworks. Close to the horicon marsh wildlife area. Most of the city has beautifully preserved historic homes that the owners are meticulous with, and take pride in. On main highway that is 20 minutes to downtown Madison and will be 15 minutes away from new U.W. hospital "
  • Kim M.
    "Being on the rail road line and having the station there can be a hinder to many. The city of Columbus though is a great location and community to prosper in. And this house is right on the parade route on mainstreet, that is a lot of fun."
