Why you'd want to live in Richmond

We’ve got 100+ buildings with giant artworks painted on them. Lovely burbs with every store on the planet. Farmlands with berry picking, wineries, tomato festivals and antiquing. The Richmond region isn’t just our downtown – it’s a collaboration between the city of Richmond, the city of Colonial Heights, the town of Ashland and four counties: Chesterfield, Hanover, Henrico and New Kent. Each area has its own personality. This is where urban edginess meets southern charm. Or, as some would say, chaaam. It’s a mid-size city – but traffic’s no big deal, which is good if you're trying to get to one of our amazing restaurants, art exhibits or unique attractions. via visitrichmondva.com
