What Drives 43201 Values: Walkability, proximity to Short North's cultural corridor, and access to OSU Medical Center consistently drive premium pricing. Properties within four blocks of North High Street command 8-12% premiums. Corner lots with off-street parking are disproportionately valuable given neighborhood parking constraints.
