About Dixon

Set among the rolling hills of the northern Ozarks, Dixon began as a 19th-century railroad settlement in Pulaski County. Trains still pass right through the center of town, giving the area a relaxed, traditional rhythm surrounded by quiet woods and scenic river country. It is a slow-paced community with plenty of room to breathe, located within easy driving distance of both Rolla and Fort Leonard Wood.

Everyday living is straightforward and convenient. The local school district serves kids from kindergarten through high school, and spots like the public library and Lions Club Park give families easy places to gather and unwind. You will find practical daily necessities right in town, including a hometown grocery store, pharmacy, local diners, and a community newspaper. Outside of town, weekend events at the Dixon Saddle Club draw neighbors together, making it a comfortable fit for anyone looking for genuine small-town peace.
