Finding Self Storage in Columbus, OH: Top Tips
Bucking the trend of rust belt decay, Columbus, Ohio is one of the Midwest’s most exciting cities. It’s weathered the last few recessions better than many other cities, thanks to its diverse economy that includes Fortune 500 companies, a large medical sector, and The Ohio State University. After work, residents enjoy some of the city’s 370 parks and many festivals. No wonder the city has seen a 15% increase in population since the 2010 census.
Though Columbus has lower housing costs than the rest of the country, rents have risen 30% since 2021 and house prices are up 14%. Throw in a large student population decreasing housing stocks and you may have to wait for the right place to open up or settle for a home with less space than you’d like.
That’s why you should keep self-storage as part of your Columbus move plans. Even if you need a larger unit, you’ll be surprised at how affordable it can be. And with self-storage facilities all over town, it’s convenient, too. If you want to move to this Ohio boomtown, don’t let storage space be what holds you back.
