Sherwood Reviews

Sherwood is a fun, small community with plenty of activities for kids and adults! Most neighborhood have a set of trail systems perfect for year round activity. Downtown Sherwood is filled with cute cafes, small pubs, and the library is a hidden gem. The town might be small in stature, but it is filled with personality from the friendly people to the unique shops and resturants.
There are a fair amount of residents that are dedicated to giving back to the community through volunteer work, donations to public works, etc. However, there are varying opinions throughout the town on what community betterment looks like.
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.
