About Oakwood

Oakwood is a town in Leon and Freestone counties in the U.S. state of Texas. The 2020 census counted 389 residents. Oakwood was founded in 1872 as a stop on the International Railroad. Oakwood is located in northeastern Leon County. Oakwood makes sense once you see how its past, landscape, and current gathering spots overlap. The useful thing to know about Oakwood is that its older landmarks and current settings belong to one connected place. USGS topographic maps show the northern town boundary following the Leon/Freestone County line, but maps by the U.S. Census show the town extending slightly north into Freestone County.
