Founded in 1803, and named in honor of Thomas Worthington, Ohio's sixth governor—Worthington with its New England heritage—is a charming community of beautifully landscaped streets, quiet neighborhoods, historic homes and churches, an award-winning school system, and a vibrant business district. Many of the original buildings from the Worthington settlement are beautifully preserved and can be enjoyed during a walk through the city's downtown, aptly called Old Worthington.

Worthington offers a number of amenities to its residents, including a wide range of housing options, dining for every taste from casual to elegant, a Community Center, a Senior Center, and a 200-acre park system with 13 parks.

Worthington is located 9 miles north of downtown Columbus, and is in close proximity to Interstates 270 and 71, and Route 315.
