Sufficient for those with a Family

I live in an old townhouse at the Woodbury Gardens with my wife and 3 year old daughter. There's nothing too spectacular about Woodbury except for the free shuttle to school and its proximity to campus. My townhouse is a bit old with creaky floorboards and lacks proper lighting; however, it is still sufficient enough for my family and I to be economical and live comfortably.

Woodbury

Utilities often an additional $80 a month, seems to be shared across the properties.
Shuttle to Ross 5x a day, otherwise a 20 minute walk to campus

Woodbury

Pros: amazing space, brand new (upgraded apartment), shuttle bus to downtown, amazing clubhouse and free breakfast.
Cons: away from downtown (25 min walk from Ross) and kitchen space isn't integrated with living room

Great option

Well maintained apartments with very responsive management. Woodbury runs it's own bus that will take you directly to Ross. The city bus operates right outside Woodbury and runs every 15 minutes during the week and drops off a block away from Ross.

Breakfast is served every weekday morning in the clubhouse. Pool, clubhouse and gym are really well maintained and great amenities. Great option if you're looking to be a little further away from the undergrad chaos but still close enough to get to Ross quickly.

Woodbury is hit and miss

There are some nice units in Woodbury, but also some bad ones. They have been installing some new finishes on empty units recently, which is nice. Highly recommend seeing the actual unit you will be occupying before signing the lease to avoid problem (potentially moldy) apartments. The shuttle to campus is great, though, and if you miss it there are also city buses convenient.

Woodbury is a good deal

Overall a great apartment complex. Lots of other MBAs. I think it is the best combination of price, amenities, quality, travel time to Ross: basically its a good value. They have a shuttle to and from Ross and the bus picks up right outside every 15 minutes.

very good price & facilities

10 minutes to Ross by bus (every 15min on workdays).
If you share an apartment with a roommate, less than $700 is your monthly cost.
Very good clubhouse with free cafe, tv, study room, internet service, gym and pool and ping-pong table.
Good community environment.

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.
