New Albany is Central Ohio's most recognizable master-planned community — white fences, Georgian-style architecture, and a design code that's kept the city's look consistent since its early settlement along Rocky Fork Creek. New Albany-Plain Local Schools operate from a connected, 120-acre campus bordered by an 80-acre nature preserve, one of the more distinctive school setups in the state and a major draw for families. Combined with an expanding business corridor and easy access to Route 161, New Albany continues to attract buyers looking for upscale new construction and a highly planned, low-turnover community.
