City - Richmond

Richmond sits on the shores of both San Francisco Bay and San Pablo Bay, giving it a waterfront character that sets it apart from most Bay Area cities its size. Point Richmond draws weekend explorers with its walkable historic streets, local shops, and Keller Beach, while Marina Bay offers scenic shoreline paths and the ferry terminal with a direct ride to San Francisco's Ferry Building. Nature lovers get serious mileage here too, with Wildcat Canyon Regional Park, Miller/Knox Regional Shoreline, and Point Pinole all within easy reach. The Rosie the Riveter/WWII Home Front National Historical Park tells a compelling chapter of American history right along the waterfront.

Richmond's rental market gives renters solid variety, from classic bungalow-style units and garden-court apartment communities to newer waterfront condos near Marina Bay.
