A new General Manager was hired in May 2008 and the mall is currently under going many upgrades and opening new stores. The Daily Democrat reported that tenancy has increased to 85 percent, up from 55 percent in 2005. In December 2005, the mall was purchased by Encino-based County Fair Fashion Mall LLC for $15.1 million. It was previously owned by Santa Ana-based Triple Net Properties LLC. (Source: Sac Bee 12/15/2005). At many times this mall has been referred to as the Dirt Mall amongst local youth.
A brand new Food Court is under construction and is schedule to open October 1. A variety of smaller businesses including an East Coast-based cafe, a candy store, and an "authentic Mexican restaurant" from San Francisco will be opening in the next few months.
The Target at this shopping center closed and moved to a new store at the Woodland Gateway retail center in July 2008. The old store was small and featured Target decor from the 80s. Burlington Coat Factory has taken the place of the 88,000 square foot former Target as of March 2009. Mervyn's filed for bankruptcy and closed in late 2008. Washington Mutual was sold to JPMorgan Chase and was rebranded to Chase in March of 2009. Gottschalks filed for bankruptcy and was sold to liquidators and the store eventually closed.
As of Fall, 2007, there is an alternative high school smack dab in the middle of the mall, courtesy of Einstein Education Center. It's funded, in part, by a grant from the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation. "E2C served 150 students the first year (2007-2008), with a full capacity of 400 students at the end of the second year." There have been fundraisers and benefit events, such as Sacramento Kings player Mike Bibby coming to a meet and greet.

The mall also hosts a Farmer's Market in their parking lot in the summer and fall - Tuesdays, 5PM-7PM and Saturdays, 9AM - 12PM. There's a story and some photos at the InsideWoodland web site.
The Mall bus stop is also a transfer point where you can take a Yolobus to get to the new Woodland Target, Best Buy, and Costco.

2006-03-27 14:34:00 Right now is a good time to shop here. There are a lot of sales going on — I found the shoes I wanted at a decent price at, of all places, Mervyn's. One store is planning to close for the summer and wants to clear out the inventory.
If you require the whole "real mall" experience — you know: no parking, too many people, a "real" food court — then try Arden Fair. We found County Fair Mall to be quiet and almost restful. And the pizza is pretty decent. —JeffreyNonken
2006-07-19 15:16:34 Good things: They have an orange julius which I love, a $3 photobooth and the amazing shiatsu massage chairs. —CatStarr
2007-03-22 23:47:02 This is by far the most depressing mall I have ever been in. The ceiling is too low, the vacancies are prolific, and the remaining stores are mostly that kind of startup looking to fill an unexploited niche, usually with names like "Bob's Shoehorn Shack". —JoePomidor
2007-05-20 10:54:55 pretty lame excuse for a "mall"..i work here, and its depressing..seriously, what kind of mall closes at 7pm on a saturday night?! —DonaldJaye
2007-05-27 14:27:38 The Washington Mutual has a drive-thru ATM. In fact, that is the only ATM they have. You have to walk up to the Drive Up ATM if you have no car. —Jedron

Just the same way you walk up to a normal ATM if you dont have a car?? You just cant please stupid people. Just so we're clear, i just called you stupid, stupid. —piratechef
2007-07-05 17:32:39 added some stores, info about Target —PatrickSing
2007-10-02 11:51:52 If you are looking for clothes at non-Davis prices, I recommend a trip to Woodland just so you can visit this mall. I usually go into Citiwear, Sassy, and Target. Oh yeah, and I got my bed here too (at Matthews Mattress) for a good price... I guess they have discontinued models, which translates to good savings. —CalamityJanie
2009-05-04 16:17:56 a good place to shop for clothes if you can't go far. —thtly
