Best value in Ann Arbor

Woodbury is great value. If you're considering living here, look at the Townhomes, they are quite spacious.

Ok

The heating of my townhome is terrible. Freezing cold in winter.

Solid choice if you don't mind a brief commute; great for couples and pets

Lots of space; good amenities in clubhouse; further from campus but easy to get back and forth with free shuttle and free city bus (stops at Woodbury and free with MCard); aging apartments, but overall a solid choice at a decent rate.

Woodbury Gardens

Plenty of space in the townhome, nice and quiet community, and good amenities for a lower price. The biggest downside is the distance from campus (1 mile), which makes getting to and from campus a little more difficult without a car.

Convenient & Safe

I'm married with a toddler and a cat. Having a kid means that we have a lot of stuff. A woodbury townhome suited our needs well because the townhome also includes a carpeted basement that is essentially the size of another floor of the home. This extra space has been crucial to organizing all of the things that my family has during the time I'm in school.

Woodbury is a safe community, it has multiple parks on the property, and a shuttle runs from the clubhouse directly to Ross several times per day. That convenience helped tip the scales for me to decide to rent here during my time at Ross.

Not happy with the quality.

They are cheaply built townhomes. I can hear everything through the walls.

Great place to live a short way from campus

Woodbury is a solid place to live while at Ross. There's a private shuttle and public buses that go near Ross a few times an hour. It's a very utilitarian place to live and is good for people with a lot of stuff or pets.

Great apt for people who can drive to their work or school. Not really within walking distance to UM campus but otherwise great.

Great apartment

Woodbury is a great apartment complex.

Pros: well-maintained, very good amenities (free printing, clubhouse, gym, pool), lots of Ross students living in the complex, very safe, close to several eateries and supermarket, Woodbury shuttle, lots of public buses on weekdays

Cons: location is not really walking distance to Ross (esp. in winter), public buses are limited on weekends, relatively expensive

Woodbury Gardens is its own community - so we don't get a lot of surrounding neighborhood effect and it's quieter.

I haven't had to go to school in person yet (due to the pandemic) - but once things are back in person, I would use the community shuttle to get to campus and possibly back depending on the time of day I head back. Otherwise, I would take the bus or walk. Walking takes about 30 min but the bus will cut down most of that since there is a city stop right at the entrance to Woodbury.
This neighborhood is "undergrad territory": lots of loud parties on the weekends. BUT it'll be this loud this close to campus, no matter what neighborhood, due to proximity to the big house
Safe, albeit there have been bicycle theft issues. It is quiet here in the community. Walking distance to UM Stadium, not far from Whole Foods, Trader Joes, Plum Market, etc...
Lots of green space if you have a dog or children. Close to the stadium, about 5-10 minute drive to Ross and downtown.
Not a lot around, but there is nice space to walk, public parks, and it is fairly quiet
Quiet, good for families, far enough to not deal with UM student traffic.
This is primarily an undergrad neighborhood. There are no bars nearby, just Dominos, Subway, and other small fast food places. It is also loud and noisy especially during games. It's very close to the IM gym and law school though, which is great.
Overall, a nice and quiet neighborhood that feels secure and is slightly removed from campus, so you're away from the hustle and bustle of the University. Definitely a grad student neighborhood. Close to public transit lines, and there is a nice grocery store near the apartment complex. Running trails are nearby, and road access to I-94 is pretty quick as well. Within an extended walk of campus, the Big House, and Ross. Really enjoy living here.
