Hey folks, Been living here since 2021. The unemployment rate is 2.2%, which is pretty low. With a population of 35,988, Richmond West is a smaller city. Downtown has improved a lot in recent years. I'd say it's better for families than young singles. What do you all think?

Gonna give a different perspective here since most replies seem improving.
I've been here 4 years and it's been a really good experience overall. The thing nobody mentions is weather. It's growing and it affects daily life more than you'd think.
That said, the public transit is legit. And if you're into golfing, this place is better than expected.
Neighborhood matters A LOT here. The Midtown side vs the Springfield side are basically different cities. Make sure you visit both before deciding.
Your mileage may vary depending on what you're looking for..
