Oakwood developed as a streetcar suburb of Toronto. Stephen Rogers constructed one of the first houses in this neighbourhood. The main streets of Oakwood–Vaughan are Oakwood Avenue, Vaughan Road, Rogers Road (named after Stephen Rogers), Dufferin Street, and Eglinton Avenue West; these main streets generally demarcate borders with other York neighbourhoods and neighbourhoods located in the current district of Toronto. A portion of Little Jamaica is located on the northern border of the neighbourhood, situated along the south side of Eglinton Avenue West between Oakwood Avenue and Marlee Avenue.
