2011 Map of Richmond

About this map

Richmond serves as the primary urban center for this portion of Macomb County, situated amidst a highly structured grid of section roads and complex drainage networks. The landscape is defined by its transition from agricultural expanses to concentrated residential streets, particularly along Division Rd and Richwood Ln. For those tracing local heritage, several historic burial grounds are noted, including Richmond Cemetery on the eastern edge of town and Bates Cemetery further west along Armada Ridge Rd. The physical geography is dominated by numerous man-made and natural watercourses, such as the Salt River and Highbank Creek, which flow through the surrounding plains. The prominence of various drainage systems like Norton Drain and Logg Drain illustrates the sophisticated water management required for this fertile region of Michigan.
