Lexington is a medium-sized town about twenty minutes west of Columbia. The local atmosphere is mainly suburban, but with some distinct small-town accents: for example, several large shopping centers can be found along Highway 378 (which changes names a few times as it passes through the town), and just a few blocks away you can also visit small specialty shops and cafes in the walkable downtown area along Main Street. North of town, Lake Murray is quite popular for boating, swimming, and fishing.

School data provided by
GreatSchools
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
