Sherwood Oaks is a middle class subdivision in the Spring Branch super neighborhood in Houston, Texas. The neighborhood is zoned to Stratford High School, Spring Forest Middle School, and Sherwood Elementary School, all operated by the Spring Branch Independent School District. Sherwood Oaks has roughly 300 Houses.

The Sherwood Oaks subdivision was officially platted in 1961 (63 years ago) (1961), with construction continuing through the early 1970s. The total number of homes is 342. The neighborhood is filled with very mature trees, and many of the streets end in cul-de-sacs. Because the neighborhood only has three main entry points, cut through traffic is minimal. The Oak Stream entrance at the I-10 access road is the subdivision's main entrance, with Timberline Drive at Sherwood Forest and Hazelhurst at Sherwood Forest being alternate entrances.

As of March 2010, home values hover around $230,000. The subdivision has become increasingly popular because it is zoned to Stratford High School and because the homes resemble the more expensive West Memorial homes that sell from about $400,000. The houses along Scenic Ridge Drive back up to the Addicks Reservoir, a large greenspace area. The neighborhood has a very active homeowners association, private garbage pickup, and regular security provided by off-duty Harris County constables.
