Even the houses, a mix of comfortable mid-century ranch and more contemporary designs, seem to settle into the landscape, their roofs peeking from behind leafy canopies, a testament to a harmonious relationship with the natural world. The history of Woodland is a quiet unfolding, a story less of dramatic pronouncements and more of persistent, steady growth.
