Situated just south of the Delaware River and 13 miles south of Philadelphia is the charming suburban area of Woodbury, New Jersey. Known as one of the oldest “small” cities in the United States, this Gloucester Country city was founded by Quakers in 1693. With beautiful homes and proximity to big city amenities, Woodbury has a lot to offer its population of roughly 10,000 residents.

Woodbury’s grid-style residential roads are lined with leafy trees and sidewalks. Street parking is the norm in these neighborhoods, so you’ll also see plenty of cars parked on either side of the road. There is a wide variety of architectural styles, including bungalows, colonials and ranch homes, which you’ll find perched next to each other on modest lots with shallow setbacks. Simple, tidy landscaping is common, and curb appeal is notable in Woodbury. Here, you can get a small, three-bedroom cottage for around $200,000, a three-bedroom brick ranch home for around $350,000 or a four-bedroom colonial for roughly $425,000.

Students in Woodbury attend schools in the Woodbury City Public School District, which receives an overall grade of B from Niche. West End Memorial Elementary School, which receives a Niche grade of C-plus, has a student-teacher ratio of 12 to one. Woodbury Junior-Senior High School serves students in grades six through 12 and earns a B grade from Niche.

When it comes to enjoying the outdoors, Woodbury residents have several well-maintained public parks to choose from. Bell Lake Park, located off Myrtle Avenue, is a peaceful place to spend an afternoon fishing or taking a loop around the lake’s paved walking trail. In the winter months, when the lake freezes over, locals head here for ice skating and ice hockey. For a park with a playground, you’ll want to head to Sherwood Green Playground on Westwood Drive. This small neighborhood park has slides and climbing structures along with a basketball court and an open field with plenty of space to run around.

When hungry, head to Broad Street for a range of options that include a local bakery and eateries serving up American, Middle Eastern and Latin American cuisine. Here you’ll also find local coffee shop Whole and Grounded Café, which boasts a cozy atmosphere and colorful décor. If you’re craving Mexican, swing by El Manantial for authentic dishes, along with a small grocery shop fully stocked with traditional Mexican staples.

Broad Street is also home to many local shops and boutiques. Pick up some vinyl at On the Record or browse vintage goods at Woodbury Antiques. When you want to shop at a big box store, drive 2 miles east on Cooper Street to land at Walmart or 2 miles further to get to Deptford Mall and the many large retailers, like Target and Dick’s Sporting Goods, that surround it. For groceries close to home, head to ALDI on High Street.

In the heart of Woodbury, you’ll find Inspira Hospital, offering residents quick access to medical care and a quick commute for healthcare workers. Most Woodbury residents travel by car, but the suburb also has access to the city’s extensive bus lines. Located between two main thoroughfares, Interstate 295 and the New Jersey Turnpike, it’s easy to get across town and beyond. When the buzzing energy of Philadelphia starts calling, take Interstate 295 to land in the heart of the city in a half-hour.
