Victorian Village is officially recognized by the City of Columbus and is declared an historic district.  With roots going back prior to 1870, Victorian Village is a thriving district which originally grew up as a community of diverse groups. Lifestyles, occupations, incomes, and educational levels were varied. Doctors, lawyers, craftsmen, and merchants built their homes there. This social mixture is reflected in the rich variety of architecture. Over a century later and still in tact in Victorian Village are some of the finest examples of domestic architecture of the Victorian Era. Its history and architecture make it unique, richly diversified and still able to accommodate a wide variety of income levels and social backgrounds. Beautiful tree lined Neil Avenue is the primary gateway connecting the north and the south.

Located in central Columbus, Victorian Village is just minutes north of downtown and south of the Ohio State University. Bordered to the west by High St, the thriving Short North area is one of Central Ohio's top destinations for entertainment, exquisite dining opportunities, eclectic shopping, all within walking distance of a majority of the residents. Just steps away is the Arena District, including Nationwide Arena, Promo West, Pavilion, and large collections of restaurants, taverns, and live music venues. Beautiful Goodale Park, cultural, and performing arts attractions are all located minutes away.
