Upper Arlington: Fine Living Done Right 5 rating By Anonymous ( May 14, 2018) I've been living in Upper Arlington for five years now after relocating here for work. It's been a phenomenal city so far and I honestly hope I never leave. It's right next to Columbus which makes getting to work easy.

Speaking of work, you'll be able to find a lot of opportunit ...Read More ies for both career and education here. Finance and insurance are a couple big industries in the area and if you work in those fields, you'll be set. There are also a few good universities around too if you want to continue your education.

Owning a home in Upper Arlington can be quite a bit more expensive than most parts of Ohio but in my opinion, it's worth every penny. The neighborhoods are well kept and the city, in general, is very safe. One of the best areas in Upper Arlington is the Schottenstein Center, especially if you're into sporting events, concerts, or even standup comedy. Read Less
