I moved here a little over a year ago with the hope that I would find a quieter community to live in than suburban Kansas City. I was wrong.
Crime is running rampant here. The Meth drug trade is destroying the town and is leading to a rise in criminal activity. And the lack of jobs for the younger people also contributes to this problem.
The people are not particularly friendly though I will say I've had less trouble with the people of Richmond than in the Kansas City area. At least they generally are not hostile like a lot of the people in Kansas City.
If you are thinking about moving to Richmond I would suggest you look elsewhere unless you have family ties to the area. I will be selling my house in 2012 and will start my small business elsewhere.
