Great for dogs, families, and graduate students!

The apartment is nice and I live in a building with mostly other graduate students who also have dogs. The area is quiet and the shuttle is awesome for getting to/from Ross. The price is really reasonable for the space and I've had an overall great experience.
Sometimes maintenance can be slow to respond - seems like a number of people have had lots of maintenance needs, but it gets done.

Solid off-campus option overall that is slightly overpriced

Pros: green space and generally quiet; good for pets; easy to get to campus with city bus (<15 min) or walking (~25 min); free and easy-to-find street parking

Cons: buildings somewhat old; appliances and other items showing wear and tear; maintenance quality below average (repeated issues with same sink, etc.); shuttle to Ross is often too full to ride (use the city bus)

Great community and facilities

Apartment has all appliances and great value for money. has shuttle to school and bus every 15 min. next to supermarket. the only problem is that apartments are old, if you can afford the extra $200 go with the upgraded ones.

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.
Reviewed by Michigan Ross MBA Student living at Woodbury Gardens
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...
