Demographics

Woodley, like many other small communities throughout Saskatchewan, has struggled to maintain a steady population causing it to become a semi ghost town. Although numbers are dwindling, it has had a spike (with renewed oil exploration) in recent influx. It is now the snowmobile capital of the world, and may be the toy capital of the world with sleds equalling more than the population. This community flourishes with a younger generation, giving it unique limited growth to a select few families. This community is unique to its surroundings with famous visitors randomly appearing in the area.

Heritage sites
