Introducing Columbus

Columbus is like the blind date your mom arranges – average looking, restrained personality, but solid and affable. Better yet, she’s easy on the wallet, an influence from Ohio State University’s 50,000-plus students (the uni is the nation’s largest).

There are two visitors centers: one located downtown (800-354-2657; VisitorInfo@.ExperienceColumbus.com; 277 W Nationwide Blvd; 8am-5pm Mon-Fri), and the other in Easton (614-416-8080; VisitorInfo@.ExperienceColumbus.com; 188 Easton Town Center; 10am-9pm Mon-Sat, 12pm-6pm Sun). The Columbus Dispatch (www.dispatch.com) is the city’s daily newspaper. The free, weekly Alive (www.columbusalive.com) has entertainment listings. Outlook (www.outlooknews.com) is a weekly gay and lesbian publication.
