About Westerville

Westerville’s rich history dates to 1806, rooted in Alum Creek’s early settlement. Named after the Westervelt brothers, it boasts landmarks like an 1820 home on the National Register of Historic Places. Otterbein University, founded in 1847, and the Women’s Christian Temperance Union add to its unique story.

Though it’s grown, Westerville keeps its small-town charm. The 96,000-square-foot Community Center offers pools, a climbing wall, fitness areas, and more. Uptown Westerville features local shops, restaurants, and vibrant community life. Families enjoy top-rated schools, excellent medical facilities, and convenient shopping.

Nature lovers will find over 40 parks with trails for walking and biking. Hoover Reservoir offers boating and summer regattas. Just 11 miles from downtown Columbus and near major shopping hubs, Westerville blends history, modern amenities, and unbeatable location.
