What's Around Richmond?

The James River is a major part of Richmond's landscape. In fact, the city claims to be the only urban setting with Class III and IV rapids. Richmond is divided into several distinct neighborhoods, including the bustling, business-forward downtown; historic and charming Church Hill; pedestrian-friendly shopping mecca Carytown; the picturesque and pricey Fan District; and the budget-friendly Jackson Ward, once known as the “Harlem of the South.” While public transportation is available via the Greater Richmond Transportation Company, most residents find that they need a car to get around the sprawling metro area. After hosting the UCI Road World Championships in September 2015, the city continues to make great strides toward becoming more bike-friendly.
