Brixey is a former unincorporated community in northern Ozark County, Missouri, United States. It is located south of Route 95 on Route N or approximately north of Gainesville.[1] [2] The store and post office, along with houses along the main road, have been vacant and boarded up for several years as of 2023; there may still be a home or two within the community limits on the back roads, as the Brixeyj name and zip code is still in use for mailings.
A post office called Brixey was in operation from 1917 to some time early in the 21st century,[3] although its zip code, 65618, is still in use. The country store, in which it was housed, closed at the same time.[4] A variant spelling was "Brixy". The community takes its name from nearby Brixey Creek[5]
