Apartments for Rent in Richland WA

Set along the Columbia River where it meets the Yakima, Richland makes it easy to balance outdoor time with a smooth commute. You’ll find apartments for rent in Richland within minutes of major job hubs like Pacific Northwest National Laboratory, Kadlec Regional Medical Center, and WSU Tri-Cities, with quick connections via SR-240 and I-182 to Kennewick, Pasco, and Tri-Cities Airport (about 10-15 minutes). Weekends often center on the water—Howard Amon Park, the 23-mile Sacagawea Heritage Trail, and Columbia Point Marina Park are local favorites, and The REACH Museum highlights the area’s Manhattan Project and natural history.

For neighborhoods, Central Richland’s Parkway and the mid-century Uptown area put you by coffee shops, vintage stores, a summer farmers market, and rentals close to the Knight Street Transit Center. Columbia Point offers waterfront homes steps from the marina, Columbia Point Golf Course, and dining options; search for apartments near Columbia Point Marina if you want morning trail runs by the river. Queensgate lines up big-box shopping, groceries, and Fairchild Cinemas right by freeway ramps for easy commuting. North Richland sits next to WSU Tri-Cities and PNNL for quick campus or lab access. Horn Rapids trades bustle for space with its golf course and desert trails. South Richland/Badger Mountain gives you trailheads at Badger Mountain Centennial Preserve and tasting rooms along Tulip Lane. Meadow Springs adds another golf course with a fast hop into Kennewick. For history enthusiasts, the Gold Coast Historic District along the river shows off early atomic-era architecture within a short walk of parks and the river path.
