Hello, Born and raised here. Average temperature is around 56--F, so the weather is moderate. Crime rate is something to consider -Richmond sits at 205.7 per 100K. Household incomes average around $48,223 in Richmond. It's a a smaller city city with about 35,498 people. It's not perfect, but the community is solid. Traffic can be rough during rush hour, no sugarcoating that. The food scene here is surprisingly good. Is this normal for Richmond? Looking forward to hearing from you all. It's a very car-dependent city, for better or worse. Cost of living is definitely rising, but still manageable. People here are genuinely friendly, not just surface-level. The suburbs are where most families end up. Property taxes are high but you get good services.
