Why Live in Richmond

Richmond's rich World War II heritage comes alive at the Rosie the Riveter National Historical Park, where visitors can tour the SS Red Oak Victory Ship and explore the city's shipbuilding legacy. The city's 32 miles of shoreline provide abundant waterfront recreation at spots like Point Pinole Regional Shoreline and Miller/Knox Regional Shoreline, with Keller Beach offering swimming and picnicking opportunities. The Point Isabel Regional Shoreline welcomes dogs off-leash with views stretching to the Golden Gate Bridge. Local dining ranges from authentic Mexican cuisine at Mi Casa Grill to upscale Italian at Biancoverde inside the historic Hotel Mac.

The Richmond housing market features diverse options across distinct neighborhoods. Point Richmond commands the highest median single family home prices at $1,194,500, followed by Carriage Hills at $850,000 and East Richmond Heights at $799,500. Marina Bay presents more affordable options with median one bedroom condo prices at $392,000 and two bedroom condos at $493,000. The citywide median sale price stands at $629,000.
