Highway 97 rural living between Quesnel and Prince George
Hixon is a low-density Highway 97 community with a rural, acreage-leaning housing feel.
The area appeals to people who want separation and a quieter, rural setting while staying connected by Highway 97 to larger service centres nearby. It’s not an amenity-rich place and not built around walkable errands; the draw is the space-and-setting lifestyle and the kind of homes that come with it, rather than a long list of nearby shops and services.
Being located along Highway 97 is central to how Hixon works: it’s positioned between Prince George and Quesnel and oriented to regional driving.
The area is characterized by single-detached homes and hobby-farm or acreage properties, which attracts buyers looking for that rural residential format.

Weekends tend to revolve around being on the property and choosing a few nearby stops rather than hopping between many close-by amenities.
