If you venture about 30 miles north of Columbus, OH, you’ll come across the beautiful suburban city of Delaware. Delaware was founded in 1808, incorporated in 1816, and is home to over 42,800 people today. This city provides solace from its larger counterpart, though there’s still much to do for everyone. For example, you can visit the Stratford Ecological Center, a farm and nature preserve where you can hike trails, say hello to the livestock, and more. You can also catch a movie at the Strand Theatre or go to Blue Limestone Park, where there’s a playground and fishing pond.
