Richmond, California has an approximate population of 102,237 people and the city is part of the San Francisco Bay area of Contra Costa County. The city goes by the nickname "The City of Pride and Purpose".

The city gets its name from the original home of state assemblyman, Edmund Randolph, who was originally from Richmond, Virginia. The city was founded and incorporated in 1905. From this point until 1919, the city had the largest winery in the world. The company town that was part of Richmond was called Winehaven. In 1919, the winery was shut down by prohibition and then the company sold off its assets to avoid bankruptcy. The area was bought by the military until it was closed by the Clinton government in 1995 where it is now a national historic place. Standard Oil started up a refinery and tank farm in 1901 and they are still operating today under the Chevron banner. During WWII, Richmond boomed and four Kaiser Shipyards were built along the waterfront. Thousands of people were employed in building 747 Liberty and Victory ships during the war. There were more ships built here than anywhere else in America.

Today, the major function of the city is as a seaport. There were 26 million tons of goods shipped through Port Richmond in 1993. Most of these goods were oil and petroleum products. Major employers of the city include: Chevron, The Permanent Medical Group, Berlex Inc., Costco Wholesale, Macy's, California Autism Foundation, and Palecek Imports Inc.
