Innis Garden Village, located between Inniswood Metro Gardens and the Westerville city line, is a residential and garden-adjacent Columbus neighborhood with wooded streets and a quiet, park-forward feel. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the entrance drive to Inniswood Metro Gardens off Hempstead Road, where seasonal plantings, trailhead parking, and weekend foot traffic set the pace. Housing leans toward late-20th-century single-family homes with generous setbacks, mature trees, and cul-de-sac geometry. Daily routines orbit around green space, with short hops to the Alum Creek corridor for longer walks and bike rides. Community touchstones include Inniswood Metro Gardens, the Westerville Community Center, and the McConnell Arts Center, which add classes, exhibits, and events to the landscape.
