  • Cbus M.
    "North Linden has historically been a working class neighborhood, and it's now up and coming. A lot of young families have moved to NorLin recently & houses are quickly being renovated and sold. We also have several urban farms & Florin Coffee recently opened in the neighborhood. There is crime, mostly south and east of us, but the pocket around Oakland Nursery is safe & quiet. Neighbors keep an eye out for each other. It's a great neighborhood for walking your dog & for kids to play. NorLin is still affordable, many homes have huge yards, and it's central to everything in Columbus."

If you mind your own business and take the necessary steps to protect yourself , your children and pets, I'd say you wouldn't have a problem living here."
