Bexley is a city in Franklin County, Ohio, United States. The population was 13,928 at the 2020 census. The city is a suburb and geographic enclave of Columbus, situated on the banks of Alum Creek next to Driving Park and Wolfe Park, just east of the Franklin Park Conservatory. It is horizontally bisected by the National Road (Main Street), serving as a reminder of Bexley's origins as a merger between the Bullitt Park neighborhood to the north, and the community of Pleasant Ridge to the south.
The suburb is home to large houses and estates, located primarily in Bullitt Park. The most famous of these include the Jeffrey Park Mansion (a.k.a. "Kelveden"), the home of the president of Ohio State University, and the Ohio Governor's Mansion, the official residence of Ohio governors since 1957.
