Columbus: Independent Arts Capital of the World
Updated: March 11, 2008
Anyone who knows me knows I'm the number-one fan of my hometown. In general I'd say we're a great city for diversity and genuine integration, liberal religion, and artistic creativity. We're known for having one of nation's best social service networks. We have a under-the-radar reputation for underground hip-hop and independent comics. And, (quiet as it's kept) Columbus is also a great place to get authentic ethnic food of all types at very cheap prices.
I'd say our biggest weaknesses are horrible-public-transportation and more-talent-than-audience. We also need to do a better job with recycling and bringing people in to the city from the suburbs.
