About New Albany

New Albany is part of the “Military District” in Ohio, land given to Revolutionary War soldiers. Founded in 1837, it has become a vibrant, growing community with a commitment to education, culture and leisure. Its charming village design gives way to an approach to development and partnerships which result in a high level of architectural integrity and community interaction.

New Albany is a mix of neighborhoods—a pedestrian friendly village square with a library, restaurants, shops and offices. There is a state of the art performing arts center, along with leisure trails, parks walkways and a family centered country club. Tree lined streets and white fences abound. The New Albany Company has been instrumental in building high quality homes ranging in price to more than a million dollars. These homes are uniformly built in the “Georgian style”.

The school district features eight buildings on one, centrally-located campus. The schools are connected by tree-lined walkways, and are surrounded by an 80-acre nature preserve. The New Albany-Plain Local School District has been rated “Excellent with Distinction by the Ohio Department of Education. It is one of few districts in the nation with all of its schools having earned “Blue Ribbon” status from the U.S. Department of Education. A high percentage of graduates attend some of the nation’s most prestigious colleges and universities. Located near to State Rt. 161 and I-270, New Albany is just fifteen minutes from Columbus.
