About Richmond

Richmond is an eastern Indiana city near the Ohio line, with deep Quaker roots and a long civic history. Quaker families from North Carolina settled along the East Fork of the Whitewater River in 1806, and the city is still home to several Quaker institutions. Richmond has museums, older neighborhoods, and a regional role as Wayne County's main city. It feels like a small Midwestern industrial and college town, with history, rail-era growth, and a location between Indianapolis and Dayton shaping its character.
