People are proud to call The Woodlands their hometown because they love the quality of life here. The preservation of the trees and the natural environment make The Woodlands a very special place indeed. Top-notch community services, schools, recreation, shopping, dining, entertainment, and even workplaces, makes The Woodlands a great place to live.

The master plan of The Woodlands was developed based on a village concept that supports the widest choices of home styles and neighborhoods. The Woodlands has been the number one selling community in Houston and Texas since 1990.

The community is committed to maintaining its high quality of life through community service organizations like The Woodlands Community Association (WCA) and The Woodlands Association (TWA). The WCA and TWA provide hometown services by supporting The Woodlands Community Service Corporation (WCSC), which contracts with The Woodlands Division of the Montgomery County Sheriff's Department and The Woodlands Fire Department for police and fire protection. Through the WCSC, the community associations also provide services such as trash collection, recycling and funding and maintenance of neighborhood parks, pools, and pathways. The community associations also organize programs such as The Woodlands Watch and provide a resident forum for community involvement.
