As a strong-mayor city, Columbus's mayor will receive a full performance score — city outcome trends vs. peer cities in the same population tier — once those metrics clear verification.
City outcome data (unemployment, crime, cost of living and more) is in the verification pipeline. We publish numbers only after they clear it. Methodology
Columbus sits in OH, whose governor Mike DeWine holds a scored statewide record (No. 8 of 29). State outcomes are not the mayor’s grade — a city is not a state — but they’re the nearest verified context today.
