Where Do You Live
04/30/2025

 

Do you live in Lexington or Circle Pines? This is a question that comes up all the time. When our town was originally founded we did not have a post office nearby and were part of New Brighton's delivery area. Eventually the post office in Circle Pines was built and took over delivery for the 55014 zip code. 

Lexington shares this zip code so by default we show up on their mail system as Circle Pines. This then transfers to other documents such as mortgage paperwork, drivers licenses, hunting licenses etc. 

To make sure our identity as a separate city from those surrounding us we want to encourage everyone to make sure Lexington is listed as your city on Drivers Licenses, Official Paperwork, Bills you receive (just ask they can fix it)

Lets Keep our Small Town Pride!!

If you live on one of these Streets ~ You are from Lexington
