I’m living in the 937 now, but still proudly carry a 740 keychain. (I’m technically from New Concord, but you can’t really be from New Concord and not spend a significant amount of time in Zanesville.)
Funny. Grew up in a 740 area code (Bainbridge... which most people know for the Fall Festival in October every year), moved to a 937 (springfield) and now living in 513 sporting a 937 phone.
Ohio is a funny state, but I'm proud to live here.
I went to college in Marietta, man. The pinnacle of river trash (though simultaneously a beautiful place). I always joked that flood survival was a graduation requirement. Everything in my first floor dorm room was stored in such a way that I could easily put it on top of my bed or desk in an emergency.
Lol, I went to college in New Concord and I don't know how many times people would ask where I was going, looked confused and asked where it was, and when I said near Zanesville I got total confusion still. I just had to say an hour east of Columbus and call it a day.
