House Hunting? Here's What $200k Will Get You Around Columbus 🏡

Happy Wednesday! Chelsea here.

Columbus has so much going on when it comes to the real estate market and it's easy to fall in love with million-dollar dream homes. But what if your budget is a little more typical? No worries here, friends. There are some incredible properties under $200,000 that are waiting to fulfill your dreams. I have to be honest, I'm head over heels for a Tudor-inspired house on this list. If you buy it, please have me over for a party, because it looks rad.

Let Your Inner 90s Kid Out Because Double Dare Live Is Coming To Columbus

🤪

I'm not a parent, but if I was, I can 100% guarantee that I would be dragging my kids to experience the magic that is Double Dare. It was always a dream of mine to go on the show when I was a kid and now the live version is coming to the Palace Theatre next month. And yes, there will be slime.

Talking Points ❤️

The Results Are In 🇺🇸

Incumbents carried the day, as they usually do in Columbus - incumbents were all re-elected on Columbus City Council and Columbus City School Board. City Council members Rob Dorans and Emmanuel Remy won their first-ever Council elections, after both being appointed earlier this year. Other notable results:

Municipal Court Judge Amy Salerno, a judge for almost 15 years, was defeated by Jessica D'Varga. Salerno is under a stayed suspension for judicial review and has a "Controversies" tab on her Wikipedia page, which maybe tells you everything else you need to know.
School levy results: Bexley, Groveport-Madison, and Westerville all passed.
Franklin County Children's Services levy easily passed.
