Hixon is an unincorporated community 2.48 square kilometres in size[1] at the northern edge of the Cariboo region of the Central Interior region of British Columbia, Canada.

It was named for Hixon Creek, which in turn is named for a 19th-century prospector in the area, by the name of Joseph Foster Hixon, who found gold here on the banks of the Fraser River back around 1866. As of 2021, it has a population of 239, representing a 13.7 percent decline from 2016.[1]
