Pretty good spot

This is your typical apartment, nothing special. But the neighborhood is nice, location is great, maintenance is pretty on top of it and the shuttle, breakfast, clubhouse, dog park and pool are all really nice to have. Overall, not a bad spot to live for a few years. Only a 8 minute bike ride to Ross.

It is great here

Quiet and easy access to Ross. Also, close to Lucky's which is the best business in Michigan.

Relatively Cheap

Good for families, great transport access to Ross, relatively cheap
Management is friendly, very pet-friendly (we have a dog).
Gym is in the clubhouse, mostly cardio.
Far from bars/restaurants, so don't pick it if you want that kind of social life.

Great for families

Woodbury is full of graduate students and families. It's a quiet space with most amenities you could want within walking distance - grocery, gas, pharmacy, restaurants, urgent care, dental, etc. When we aren't using the buses, Uber tends to cost between 5-10 dollars each way to downtown Ann Arbor.

Great Place

This is conveniently located and peaceful. I feel very safe, and I know if I had an issue, management would resolve it. I love that I can walk to the grocery store and have two free options to get to school ( bus or the Woodbury Shuttle). The drawback is that management is unnecessarily strict with shared spaces, so don't expect to be able to reserve the club house or eat in a conference room.

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.

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.

I like the convenience of getting to Ross in six minutes for class, group meetings, or coffee chats. It’s great to be able to come home and grab a quick bite before changing into a suit and walking back over. Easy walk to hockey games, and about 15 minutes to Bus/Big House. Well situated to make it to social gatherings at Skeeps, Rick’s, Munger, or any other place.

Woodbury is on the other side of Stadium Ave from Burns Park, but it's convenient access. The complex itself is pretty friendly; lots of law students around though it takes a bit of effort to get to know neighbors since everyone is on their own schedules and it's a generally older crowd.
Reviewed by Michigan Ross MBA Student living at Woodbury Gardens
Quiet neighborhood, many UMich grad students. Good availability of shops and amenities. Definitely has a more suburban feel than the areas closest to campus/downtown and not as many restaurants/bars nearby.
Reviewed by Michigan Law Student living at Woodbury Gardens
Quieter area with more families and not many undergraduate students. Still walkable to campus, but you probably won’t want to do the walk in the winter and need a car to get to grocery stores.
Reviewed by Michigan Ross MBA Student living at Woodbury Gardens
The neighborhood has everything you need (grocery, coffee, pharmacy, etc.) and is close to the Big House. It is farther away from downtown's bars, restaurants, and other amenities.

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...
