Richmond, VA Real Estate

Richmond is the capital of the Commonwealth of Virginia, a state of the United States of America. Like all Virginia municipalities incorporated as cities, it is an independent city, not part of any county ( Richmond County is unrelated, and located more than 53 miles (85 kilometers) distant in a different region of the state ). Richmond is located on the fall line of the James River in the Piedmont region of Virginia and is at the center of the Richmond Metropolitan Statistical Area (MSA) and the Greater Richmond Area.

Common colloquialisms for the city include RVA and RIC (its airport code ).

In 1607, James I granted a royal charter to the Virginia Company of London to settle colonists in North America. After the first permanent English settlement was established later that year at Jamestown, Captain Christopher Newport and Captain John Smith set sail ten days after landing at Jamestown, traveling northwest up Powhatan's River (now known as the James River ) to Powhatan Hill. The first expedition consisted of 120 men from Jamestown, and made the first attempt to settle at the Falls of the James, located between the 14th Street Bridge in modern downtown Richmond and the Pony Pasture (a recreational area along the banks of the river south of the City of Richmond). The settlement was made at this location as it is the highest navigable site along the James River.
