Holly Hill, located between I-71 and Alum Creek, is a residential and commuter-friendly Columbus neighborhood with mid-century ranch streetscapes and a wooded, creekside edge. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Livingston Avenue corridor near the I-71 ramps, where auto shops, corner carryouts, and small storefronts set a practical, everyday rhythm. Brick one-story homes and tidy duplexes sit on gently curving blocks, with mature trees softening the streets. Alum Creek Trail and nearby greenways shape an outdoors-forward routine. Franklin Park Conservatory and Botanical Gardens and the East Market anchor nearby culture and food. Downtown and Bexley sit just beyond the neighborhood grid.

Rural District
The Rural District is intended for agricultural and residential development in the County where the conservation of resources is important or where appropriate urban use of the land cannot be achieved because of the lack of urban services, most importantly centralized water and sanitary sewer. The principal permitted uses are agriculture, residential subdivisions and farm dwellings.; The intent of these Rural District Regulations is to protect farmland, lands in current agricultural use valuation, prime agricultural soils, open land and residential land from the intrusion and premature development of urban uses not performing a function necessary to the agricultural and residential use of the land or meeting the social, cultural or economic growth needs of the County. Because land in the Rural District is the most subject to being placed in another Zoning District as growth of the County occurs, such changes should be made with due concern to the protection of established uses.
