Lexington sits at the junction of several drainage systems in the dry interior of Morrow County, where the valley of Willow Cr provides a natural corridor for movement. The town layout is clearly defined by W Main St and S Front St, serving as a central hub for the surrounding plateau and its agricultural infrastructure. Numerous canyons, such as Clarks Canyon and Blackhorse Canyon, carve into the high ground, illustrating how water has shaped the accessibility of the region. Local history is anchored by the Lexington Cem and the small Lexington Airport, while the outlying areas like Social Ridge show the transition into more isolated territory. The landscape is characterized by a network of rural roads, including Cemetery Hill Rd and Social Ridge Ln, which connect dispersed ranching or farming operations across the high ridges above Cutsforth Reservoir.
