Fortson forms the northern part of Columbus city and is better simplified to the “Northside”. It is a mini town in itself with several communities living as one big family. It’s 20 minutes from the Columbus downtown but it feels miles away. It's way quieter, away from the city noise, and is as simple as it gets. With friendly people and easy availability of modern services, the place has transformed into a coveted living spot.
One of the best things about Fortson is the Lake Harding near Blanton Creek Park. It’s a sunny and romantic place for picnics and sunbaths. For a more adventurous venture, shoot off to the Flat Rock Park, a place ripe for camping and hiking. A more serene atmosphere can be found in Heath Park, just a stone throw away. The town is itself is neat and clean with wide roads and spacious homes abound. Gentrification is bringing in new restaurants and cafes. Maple Sports Bar & Restaurant is a great food joint while Mark's Pies and Thighs is every chicken lover’s paradise on earth. Now locals hardly venture out to the heart of Columbus for outdoor entertainment.
But other than the usual pleasure of urban life, the city provides a safe blanket of job security. Its diverse base of industries and its close vicinity to Columbus, gives the place an enviable economic warmth. Continue your career or look for new opportunities in banking, manufacturing, agriculture, health or education. The highly-recognized Columbus State University is easily accessible from Fortson.
