Columbus is experiencing a historic investment boom anchored by Intel's $20 billion chip fabrication campus in New Albany, which has triggered a cascade of supplier facilities, housing developments, and infrastructure upgrades across central Ohio. The city's zoning activity has surged, with rezoning petitions for industrial supplier parks, workforce housing subdivisions, and mixed-use projects clustering around the I-70 and US-62 corridors. Columbus City Council and the Planning Commission are processing record volumes of planned development and conditional use applications. Delaware County to the north has become a hotbed of residential rezoning as housing demand outpaces supply.
