Richmond Overview

For East Bay living in the San Francisco area, there?s nothing quite like Richmond, CA. No other city in the region boasts as much waterfront as Richmond! For those looking to move to an apartment in Richmond, your odds of a water view are much higher than in surrounding areas -- all without the headaches of property taxes.

What is the history of Richmond?

Richmond wasn?t officially incorporated until 1905. The area previously served as a rail stop for the Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe Railroad, which drew settlers.

How do I get around town?

Richmond is a great place to live if you want to limit your own driving. Bus lines take residents to points within the city, as well as to neighboring cities and train depots.
