Relocating to Marysville/Columbus?

My husband is being relocated to Marysville, Ohio.

I’ve pretty much exhausted the search for places to rent in Marysville…there aren’t many options, especially with our two Saint Bernards. Also, we want a more urban and busier feel as we live in Indianapolis now, which seems a little small as we are originally from the Detroit Metro area.

We would appreciate any suggestions on areas that would fit our needs. Most important: we want an urban feel, a place that is really easy to meet other young 20-somethings, safe enough to walk the dogs at night (but it doesn’t have to be mayberry, we are from detroit lol), and within 40 minutes of marysville. We are willing to pay up to $1200/month.

Thanks so much!

I am from Marysville. There are a lot of really nice places here in town, not that they are urban though.
Things immediately around here are pretty small and definitely not urban.
There is a campus in Urbana, Ohio as well as Delaware, so there would most likely be plenty of places to rent, depending on how close you want to be to a campus.
Of course there is downtown, its pretty "urban" but rough in some spots, not really dog walking streets if you live on the wrong area
Dublin is always another good pick, but they are a little pricier. Hilliard is in the same boat as well as Worthington and Westerville.
As far as an Urban feel i would look at Dublin, Columbus and Westerville…those are the first ones that come to mind.
I hope everything works out for you.
It’s pretty small when you first get here…i know i was in for a shock, but it grows on you.
