Misenheimer, is an incorporated village in Stanly County, North Carolina. It is in the southern Piedmont region of North Carolina, near the city of Richfield.

It was chartered on in 2003 directly (without a local referendum) by the North Carolina General Assembly, becoming effective on June 26th. It has a mayor-council government with five total council members serving staggered four-year terms. The council elects one of its own members as the mayor every two years, and may remove and replace the mayor as well. Members are elected at-large (without districts) and in a non-partisan manner. The local legislation creating the city specified that elections were to be held in even-numbered years, while the rest of the state always uses odd-numbered ones.

The college town is dominated by the main campus of Pfeiffer University, which also houses Gray Stone Day School, a charter high school.
