Living In Richmond, VA

While Richmond is inextricably linked to the Civil War, the city actually balances that historic weight with some of its other inviting amenities. Richmond has developed into a cutting-edge, cosmopolitan center that offers an impressive array of cultural, business, entertainment and educational possibilities. And while all those facets of life in Richmond are significant, sometimes the city's natural charm wins out over all of them. A stroll along the James River will convince any naysayers of that fact in no time at all.
