Planned community north of Houston with strict homeowner guidelines assuring your neighbor won't paint their home purple, or pink, or some other whacko color. The residents pay LOTS of taxes to ensure it stays nice... with trees. Houston is one of the ugliest cities in America. The Woodlands is where those who care ... and can... escape from Houston. Lots of money but lots of driven people who work hard to earn their lifestyles. Ghetto? Not even close. Kids everywhere, upscale retail, fine dining, excellent public school system and a great selection of private schools from which to choose. What's not to like?

The Woodlands is the most stereotyped and labeled school and community of the Northern-Houston area. It is a very wealthy community with a lot of talent and academic skills. Yes, a lot of people are snobby. NO, not "EVERYONE" has the newest BMW or Benz; yes, there are a few people that do, but the majority have normal cars.
Drugs are definitely not ruining all of the students' minds and we most certainly DO NOT have the lowest test scores in the state of Texas. In fact, it is a TOTAL bitch to get into the top 10 percent of your graduating class, even if you're one of the smarter kids in your class. There are countless Advanced Placement (AP) courses available, and there are ALOT of people enrolled in them.
Yes, we do win at pretty much everything. We have been ranked THE top athletic program in the nation in 2009, and have stayed up there since, and most of our teams pretty much kick everyone's asses in the surrounding area. The football team could definitely beat some college teams. Each football game draws an insanely high amount. The top junior diver in the world attends here. The band program probably gets more money than ANY other program in the school-- the marching band is consistently one of the top marching 5 bands in the county.. the top concert band is about just as good as some professional orchestras.
Like I said, people just stereotype us a lot. We may beat everyone at a lot of things, but we certainly work our ASSES OFF to do these things.

The county seat of Yolo county, California. Woodland is a shitty truckstop-town west of Sacramento that people should only stop in if they're getting gas to go somewhere better. There's nothing to do here and its full of hicks wannabe thugs and tweakers who still dress like it's 2006. You can't drive through Woodland without seeing at least one tweaker yelling at the sidewalk, or a fat redneck with semi-rimless glasses and a leased dodge ram he can barely afford. The wannabe thugs will also drive past you blairing their crappy music thinking that they're in the hood. Woodland is pathetic.
Person 1: "Where are you from?"
Person 2: "MANG IM FOM THE WOO"
Person 1: "Uh, where?"
Person 2: "WOODLAND CUH."
Person 1: "Where the fuck is that?"

I have read almost all of the posts about this place where I have lived my entire life. So here are some corrections to your "knowledge" about my home:
1. I'm not blond haired and blue eyed, and neither is at least 60% of the girls her.
2. We are not all stoned, all the time. Just because we have money doesn't mean we use drugs, although some do.
3. We have amazing achievements academically, people need to stop saying otherwise.
4. Most teenagers do not have brand new BMWs like some think, just because our parents do doesn't mean they will waste it on us.
5. Car accidents and deaths are NOT the norm, and it is very sad when that occurs.
6. Very few families own two houses. Once again, JUST BECAUSE WE HAVE MONEY DOESN'T MEAN WE JUST THROW IT AROUND WITHOUT EVEN CONSIDERING IT!!!!!!
7. People don't always cheat on there boyfriend/girlfriend and spread rumors and secrets.
8. Most high schoolers are fairly nice and hard working.
Those are just a few responses to the many people who hate the woodlands for no reason. I actually do want to leave this place once I graduate high school, but I don't hate it like people who don't know what they are talking about seem to.

Out of towner:"Everyone student in The Woodlands High School drives BMWs"
Student: "Um... I have a '97 Honda Civic, that I saved up to buy."
Out of towner: "Why? You live in The Woodlands."
Student: " THAT DOESN'T MEAN I GET EVERYTHING I WANT!!!"

The least ghetto town in the world, The Woodlands is home to the #1 snobbiest high school in the United States, as named by Larry King himself. Despised throughout Texas for our superiority in everything except academics because the student population is mostly stoned off of their ass (all the time).
You know you live in the Woodlands when you:
Don't care about seeing Porche's anymore
Drop a quarter and don't bother picking it up
Complain about getting an '04 BMW instead of the '05 Benz that you wanted.

Woodland is a sweet caring boy who is always working and deserves a break. He is friends with everyone but yet still has a main friend group. He will always attempt a task no matter how hard it is. Woodland has dark hair and is extremely handsome that one look at him will make your heart stop. He is always making his friends laugh and will make you laugh too
