Living in Richmond

Once a region defined principally by its southern charm and history, Richmond has grown into a thriving, cosmopolitan destination, revered for its natural beauty and amenities.

Richmond offers the entertainment and recreational opportunities of a much larger metro area, with the accessibility, atmosphere, and traffic of a smaller city, providing an ideal and affordable location to raise a family and grow a business and career.

The region offers an extensive variety of arts and cultural activities that serve to enrich its well-known history, including state museums like the Virginia Museum of Fine Arts and the Science Museum of Virginia, and a full array of theatre, opera, symphony, comedy, concerts, and other productions.
