In 1906 the villages of Toyoba ( 豊 場 村 , - mura ) and Aoyama ( 青山 村 , -mura ) merge to form the village of Toyoyama. This received the status of a small town ( chō ) in 1972 .

On July 7, 2005, the small towns of Nishibiwajima , Kiyosu and Shinkawa merged to form the new city of Kiyosu . On March 20, 2006, the small towns of Shikatsu and Nishiharu merged to form the city of Kitanagoya . As a result, only the small towns of Kasuga and Toyoyama remained in Nishikasugai County . Since Kasuga was finally incorporated into the city of Kiyosu on October 1, 2009, Toyoyama is the only municipality in the district and the smallest municipality in Aichi Prefecture in terms of area.
