Lexington, Missouri is a charming, walkable historic river town on the Missouri River with a restored downtown, Victorian homes, lively festivals, cozy restaurants, boutique shops and easy outdoor access (Katy Trail, boating/fishing), making it an enjoyable, interesting place to live and work for multi‑week therapy contracts.
Within about 40–65 miles are Kansas City (major dining, nightlife, airport and cultural amenities) and Columbia (university town with museums and medical centers), so you get small‑town pace with quick trips to big‑city resources.
