Strike a Balance of Work & Play

Located about 30 miles southeast of Columbus, Lancaster is within easy distance of big-city business and amenities, but with a plethora of its own businesses, shopping, dining, entertainment, and recreational opportunities, it is very much an independent area rather than a suburb. Plus, Lancaster boasts many industrial parks perfect for finding employment within an existing company — or branching out to finally start your own business with the creative aid and solutions of a highly supportive city.

Enjoy a Lively Community

Lancaster is a lively community filled with opportunites to get out and participate. From outdoor activities such as winter hikes, Pickin’ in the Park (a chance for local musicians of all skill levels to get out and perform), and Saturday in the Park (which features a weekly lesson, craft, hike or game in Alley Park), to yoga and sporting clubs, there’s something for everyone, no matter age or interest, to enjoy.

Get Outside — There’s Plenty of Opportunity

Whether you’re a biker, a hiker, a soccer player, a shopper, or merely a parent trying to tire out your kids, there’s a place to pursue your interest. Parks are scattered throughout the city and include athletic fields, tennis courts, disc golf courses, playgrounds, picnic shelters, hiking trails, and even ponds. Lancaster is also home to the Lancaster Campground, for those who enjoy nights under the stars.

Downtown Lancaster is a great place for a weekend stroll. Appreciate all the local shops and restaurants, such as JD Henderson Sports Lounge, the Ale House, Mickey’s Bar and Grill, or the Happy Goat Gluten-Free Bakery. For bigger stores and retailers, Lancaster is home to several large shopping centers, including the Lancaster Plaza Shopping Center, Harts Shopping Center, and the Hocking Valley Mall Shopping Center.

Lancaster City Schools

Lancaster is served by Lancaster City Schools, which strives to encourage learning, caring, and success.

A Variety of Affordable Homes

Lancaster offers a wide variety of homes to meet all tastes and budgets, from quaint cottages in town to spacious new-construction custom homes boasting acres of private wooded land, and everything in between. Homes here are largely affordable, with most homes under $100,000, and many even under $50,000.
