A real, roughly stable population
Woodstock's population ran 1,434 at the 2020 Census, with 2026-dated aggregator estimates ranging from approximately 1,252 to 1,454 -- close enough that this record treats Woodstock's population as genuinely roughly stable rather than confidently trending either way (base record).
The Woodstock Inn Brewery as a real local landmark

A genuinely small, tourism-dependent local economy
