The Market
Columbus is the largest city in Ohio with a population of 900,000 and a metro area of 2.1 million, anchored by a young and growing population driven by The Ohio State University — one of the largest universities in the United States. The city's Short North, German Village, and Arena District neighborhoods anchor a vibrant urban core, while a diverse economy spanning finance, retail, healthcare, and logistics has made Columbus one of the most economically resilient major metros in the Midwest.
Columbus hosts Ohio State Buckeyes football — which consistently draws over 100,000 fans to Ohio Stadium, the third-largest stadium in the world — alongside the Columbus Marathon, the Columbus Zoo's annual events, and a growing sports calendar that now includes the Columbus Crew MLS team and the newly added Columbus Blue Jackets. The city also regularly hosts major Big Ten athletic events and corporate conferences.
