Chesterfield County balances green space, established neighborhoods, and easy access to regional employers, making it a compelling choice for residents and newcomers alike. Minutes from Richmond and bordering Henrico County and Petersburg, its communities—Midlothian, Bon Air, and Chester—offer varied housing, from classic brick colonials to new builds with community amenities.
Weekend plans come naturally here. Miles of trails, lakes, and campgrounds await at Pocahontas State Park, while living history unfolds at Henricus Historical Park on the James River. Sports families appreciate tournament-ready fields at River City Sportsplex, and wildlife encounters delight all ages at the Richmond Metro Zoo. Shoppers find national brands and local boutiques at Chesterfield Towne Center, and paddlers explore the Dutch Gap Conservation Area and Swift Creek Reservoir at sunset.
Education is a standout. Chesterfield County Public Schools earns strong marks for academics, specialty centers, and career pathways, and nearby higher-ed options expand opportunities. Commuters benefit from Route 288, Powhite Parkway, and ample park-and-ride options, while a growing dining scene keeps weeknights interesting without the city drive.
