The town is very beautiful and full of well-educated people ! Even though there is not much diversity within the community, people are still generally very accepting of others' views and values. It's a great place to grow up in; I know because I grew up in Sherwood! All of the local stores and coffee shops are right next to each other, which is very convenient. Overall, Sherwood is a safe, family friendly, and community-centered town, which I really appreciate.
Sherwood is pretty amazing! The area has one of almost every store, so you usually don’t have to travel far. The school system is mediocre.
A safe town, sort of stuffy and not terribly exciting. Set in a pretty natural setting.
Public schools get a lot of praise and are very good compared to neighboring areas, but are just average on a national scale.
Housing is expensive, but more affordable that areas closer to Portland.
It's a suburb and not set up to be very walkable or to have easy access to businesses by foot.
A few good local restaurants, but mainly fast food chains available.
Residents have a very good opinion of the town, cannot stop raving about it.
