About Richview

Richview got its name in 1852 thanks to its perch on high ground overlooking the rolling southern Illinois countryside. It was once a bustling hub with its own mills and newspaper, but today it offers a quiet, relaxed pace of life in rural Washington County. If you are looking for peaceful small-town living surrounded by open farmland and scenic country roads, Richview is a charming place to settle down.
