While Pataskala has grown rapidly since the merger, it still maintains the tranquility of country life. In the words of Pataskala’s Mayor, Stephen Butcher, “The foundation of our community consists of a blend of Historic Downtowns, a strong rural character, quality new and existing residential subdivisions, and premier development sites, which we are working hard to build upon and expand the City's quality of life. ”
