Filmed on Saturday, October 19 2024, I drive around the Franklinton neighborhood of Columbus, OH to see what's going on.
Franklinton began as an independent city, settled in 1797. As the city of Columbus grew, the city annexed Franklinton in 1859.
Though recent redevelopment efforts have improved the area, 56% of Franklinton residents lack a high school diploma, over 60% of residents live below the poverty line, and 93% of students at the school's public elementary school are eligible for free or reduced lunch.
Franklinton lacks a commercial grocery store. In 2018, a small nonprofit grocery and cafe opened to alleviate some of the food insecurity, the first nonprofit grocery in the city.
