About Lexington

Lexington is a quiet small town on the south side of the Canadian River in southern Cleveland County, right across the water from Purcell. The two communities share a close connection across the US 77 bridge, giving Lexington residents a relaxed, rural feel alongside quick access to Purcell’s grocery stores, local diners, and shops. Back before statehood, this river crossing was a lively border area, earning the nickname "Sand Bar Town" thanks to the saloons that once clustered along the riverbanks.

Today, Lexington draws people looking for affordable homes, larger yards, and a slower pace of life within an easy drive of Norman and the Oklahoma City metro. State Highway 39 and US 77 keep travel simple, making it convenient to commute or run errands across the bridge. It is a welcoming place for anyone who values a peaceful country setting while staying close to everyday necessities.
