If the phrase "location, location, location" tells a story, that story is about Richmond Heights. Located at the confluence of Interstates 64 and 170 just east of the City of St. Louis, Richmond Heights is minutes away from the airport, colleges, sports venues, and many cultural attractions. A soon-to-come MetroLink light rail station will strengthen our community’s connections with the world around us.

Richmond Heights is one of the region’s most sought-after communities. We are a mature city with peaceful and beautiful residential neighborhoods. Our tree-lined streets (supported by a municipal planting and replacement program) have earned the City the distinction of being a "Tree City USA" — an honor bestowed on selected cities across the country by the National Association of Forestry.

Well-maintained homes in a wide variety of architectural styles help make Richmond Heights the perfect place to raise a family. Many of the homes in Richmond Heights feature characteristics associated with the Arts and Crafts period, including hardwood floors, stained glass and leaded windows, high ceilings and unique architectural styling. More contemporary style ranches, traditional two-story Tudor-style and Georgian-style homes — even a few Mediterranean-style homes — can be found here, as well.

In addition to its lovely homes, Richmond Heights features a number of quaint apartments and a 99-bed retirement community that once was a school. One of the nation’s first new high-rise, loft-style condominium projects (built in 2000) is located here, too.
