About Richey

Richey sits along Highway 200 in eastern Montana, roughly midway between Glendive, Sidney, and Circle. It is a quiet farming and ranching community surrounded by rolling wheat fields, open grazing land, and big prairie skies. While larger towns like Glendive are within driving distance for major errands and medical care, Richey offers a peaceful, self-contained lifestyle where neighbors know each other by name and daily life moves at an unhurried pace.

Town life largely revolves around the local K-12 school, where Friday night games, student concerts, and FFA events bring everyone out to support the kids. The community takes deep pride in its heritage, preserving local homestead history across a six-building museum complex right in town. With church suppers, quick trips to nearby reservoirs for weekend fishing, and the annual summer rodeo, Richey delivers a genuine slice of close-knit rural Montana.
