​Alexandria is a picturesque community in Central Ohio, situated in western Licking County. Founded in 1830, Alexandria is a village that is proud of its heritage and generations of families have called it home. Living in Alexandria means enjoying the things that only a small town can offer — a tight-knit community, friendly neighbors, safe streets, and plenty of green space.

Local family farms, fast-running creeks, small businesses, and an abundance of wildlife combine to enhance the community's rural setting. The T.J. Evans Bike Trail, an 18-mile Rails-to-Trails path passing through Licking County fields and forest, features a convenient parking area in Alexandria, giving travelers opportunities for food and beverage stops.

The village is located on State Route 37, ​approximately 30 miles east of the state capitol in Columbus and 6 miles west of Granville. Alexandria is part of the Northridge Local School District. There are also several institutions of higher education within a short distance, including Denison University, The Ohio State University at Newark, ​and Central Ohio Technical College.
