About Harrisburg
Harrisburg is a quiet village tucked along the banks of Big Darby Creek, just southwest of Columbus. Straddling the border of Franklin and Pickaway counties, it offers a peaceful rural atmosphere surrounded by open farmland and scenic waterways. The community dates back to the 1830s when it served as an early countryside crossroads, and it has managed to hold onto that relaxed, unhurried pace even as central Ohio grows around it.
Living here gives you plenty of space while keeping everyday conveniences within easy reach. The village itself is small, so residents head to neighboring Grove City for most of their shopping, dining, and schools, and the commute into downtown Columbus is a straightforward drive. With Big Darby Creek right down the road for fishing, canoeing, and walking trails, Harrisburg offers a comfortable blend of country living and easy city access.
