| Clean, stuck up, and better than the city. - 6/24/2020
It’s nicer than being in the City. It’s Suburban, clean, pleasant, shopping and McMansions. People are stuck up, go figure. Not a down to earth place. But it’s safe here in Woodbury.

| Quality of life in Woodbury, Minnesota - 1/7/2012
Woodbury is an excellent place to raise a family. It is a safe and attractive community that lavishes its residents with mosts wants and needs. Woodbury is also in close proximity to Saint Paul and Minneapolis, Stillwater(a very enjoyable place to visit)is only a breath away.
Although Minnesotans must deal with cold winters, a city with so much to offer helps one make it through the harsh, winter months. Quality of life = superb in my opinion.

| Minnesota nice is alive and well... - 3/24/2011
Living in the Twin Citie is simply fun. We appreciate four seasons and look forward to being outside in summer after our harsh winters. The crime rate is low, rush hours are short if intense, and we take education very seriously. People are courteous and culture abounds. There are many venues to enjoy music, theatre, and other forms of live entertainment. We pay a bit more in taxes but it's well worth it. It has been said that people are reluctant to move to Minnesota, but once they're here they never want to leave!

| Woodbury's ups and downs - 2/25/2008
Let me start with the good side about living in Woodbury. First of all, there are plenty of schools. I don't send my kids there because I homeschool, but there are many of them. Our hard earned tax dollars go to those schools, but I'll talk about that in the negatives. We have an overall great living environment. There isn't much crime atleast in my neighborhood. There are lots of things for families here-dance lessons, iceskating lessons, hockey, sports, library, YMCA, to name a few. There is plenty of housing too.
The things i don't like about Woodbury is, as a stay at home mom, it is very difficult to raise a family here on one income. The taxes are raised every year to pay for schools or to add on to a Sports Center or make the land environmentally friendly. I think all of that is important to a degree, but since I do not send my kids to public school, should I get a break from paying for that? Also, I don't like how uppity Woodbury is. This is not a friendly town in my opinion. I hold open doors for people and they don't even say thank you. I smile at people when I am shopping and they look at me like I killed their children. It's just odd. People have alot of money to blow here and they are pretty ungrateful and rude. Although it is nothing like living in ST. Paul or Minneapolis, Woodbury definitely is not my idea of a small town. It's a suburb, with lots to do and see, but not as friendly as I would like. It's hard to get to know your neighbors here and many of them up and move after a few years.
But if you have 2 incomes and don't mind those things..you will like Woodbury. It is a nice suburb--clean and neat and the city does a great job of keeping Woodbury nice for others. They have lots of parks and recreational activities and that is great for families. I just don't think this place is meant for people who have more than 2 kids and live on one income.

| Great Place To Live! - 12/5/2006
Woodbury, MN is a rapidly growing suburb of St. Paul, MN. It is a well-planned community with upper middle class family values of good education, safe and accessible recreation (including miles of paved trails for hiking and biking), and top quality medical facilities, and shopping.
