    Lived at the Nicholas for about a year and a half and have 0 complaints. The Nicholas is in the perfect location downtown, literally in the middle of everything. For downtown living I always felt safe with 24/7 lighting around the building, key fob entry at every door & secure parking garage. The leasing office & maintenance staff are great. Only had 1 or 2 maintenance issues while living there & they were always handled quickly & efficiently. New modern & clean building with great amenities. If ...
    I ever move back to Columbus I would definitely stay at the Nicholas again.

The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on scale of 1 (below average) and to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider needs as part of the school selection process.
