Richmond being a small town found in the one and only rhode island is full of great people and places to go. Richmond is full of people who are always willing to help each other out and want the best for everyone around them, you will never find another town that has such a strong feeling of community and care. Whether it is the Washington County fair where everyone gathers in the summer for a week long to enjoy traditions and culture of the area to the awesome schooling this is a place that you can live without having to worry about whether or not you are safe and will have something to do. No other town beats the small Richmond Rhode Island if you ever have the time to research this area you will not be disappointed no body could not love this place.
I've lived in Richmond, Rhode Island for pretty much my whole life and it truly was a great town to grow up in. From various parks and hiking trails to great schools where I've met some of my best friends, Richmond has some great hidden gems that easily turn into a go-to spot that I would recommend to anyone.
Richmond, RI is a very simple and quiet town. There is not much going on and that isn't always a bad thing. It's close to the University of Rhode Island and not too far from the beaches in Westerly, RI. In addition, it's a good place to live you want a quiet and normal life. However, if you want more than just that, it can be quite boring. It's about 45 minutes from Providence, RI, but besides that, there isn't much else to do. The town also is not very diverse, along with many other places in Southern Rhode Island.
