Relocating to Pickerington, Ohio

Moving to Lancaster or Central Ohio? I'm a Lancaster native, and I help you find a place you'll be proud to call home.

What moving to Pickerington looks like

Pickerington is a suburban town oriented toward Columbus, about 15 minutes away, with two ways in: Route 33 and Interstate 70. People choose it for the shorter commute and because it is a nice growing area.

For daily life you have Roosters, The Old Bag of Nails Pub, Grapevine Pizza, Kingy's Pizza, Porters Coffee House and Bakery, Rule 3 bowling and several parks.

The homes

Expect many newer homes in lots of subdivisions, and plenty of new construction. Homes here generally cost more than in Lancaster, which sits a little further from Columbus. I help you compare the two so you pick the setting that fits.

Looking from far away
