...are looking for a community in which to rear your children or to provide them with a quality education, you need look no further. Our public schools are ranked among the top in the state. Our recreational program for children is the envy of many, and operates year-round. There are five colleges, a university, and a technical school within one hour's driving time.

...seek abundant leisure activities, your search is over. Richmond Hill has great saltwater and freshwater fishing facilities, an abundance of hunting areas, and a year-round climate to match. We have two marinas with easy access to the Atlantic Ocean. The area also has many historical tourist attractions.

...want a community in which to live, we can certainly fulfill your every dream. Look over our residential subdivisions, of which there are many. You will like what you see.

...are pursuing a community in which to operate a business, you have found it. Richmond Hill grew 142% during the '8Os and is among the top ten fastest-growing cities in Georgia.

...are an industrialist planning to expand operations, Richmond Hill has low taxes, adequate facilities, great transportation options, and the convenience of being 15 minutes from Savannah, with easy access to an international airport and major seaport. There is, in addition, a vast labor pool in the area.

...enjoy shopping, we have two shopping centers with some truly unique shops; we are only 15 minutes from two regional malls.

...are retiring to a new location, our city is the ultimate. We are a caring community and take good care of our senior citizens.

Maybe you just want to be around people who are friendly and loving, people who are, in most cases, just a little laid back and who enjoy the good lifestyle available in Richmond Hill. In that respect, we are surely ranked number one.

Richmond Hill is indeed a GREAT PLACE TO LIVE, offering a culture, commerce, and convenience unmatched anywhere. Try us! You will agree. Thanks again for your interest in our city.
