Richmond rewards daily life with wide-open views, winding back roads, and quick access to culture in every direction. Ten minutes north brings you to Pittsfield for dining, theaters, and errands; a short drive southeast reaches Lenox, home to the Boston Symphony Orchestra’s iconic Tanglewood. History buffs and families alike gravitate to the living museum at Hancock Shaker Village, while outdoor time often centers on Richmond Pond—paddling, fishing, and swimming at the town beach—with stewardship and updates from the Richmond Pond Association. Set amid the rolling Berkshire hills, weekends might mean apple picking, scenic bike rides, or snow days at nearby slopes.
Education is a strong suit. The town’s well-regarded Richmond Consolidated School serves PreK–8 with small class sizes, robust arts, and community-supported activities. For high school, families have options through neighboring districts, including the Berkshire Hills Regional School District, home to Monument Mountain Regional High School.
Life here moves at a comfortable pace: quiet neighborhoods, active town committees, and locally grown produce share the stage with world-class music and museums just minutes away. Whether you’re moving for the schools, the lake, or the cultural calendar, Richmond offers a rare blend of privacy and proximity.
