Richmond, CA • Birthed when a railroad company and a refinery decided Richmond was a strategic location • Founded in 1905, the city grew from 2,150 people to 23,600 people in 1940 as other companies began to establish themselves in Richmond. • WWII began and the Kaiser Richmond Shipyards sprang up on Richmond’s south shoreline in 1941.

Richmond CA • The population boomed from 23,600 in 1940 to 93,700 in 1943 and finally peaking at 101,500 in 1947. • The Great Migration: people from the south, southwest, and midwest moved to Richmond for war time jobs. • The war ended and the shipyards closed in 1945. Many other jobs left and many people left the city. The population dropped to 71,900 in 1960.

Richmond CA • In 1976 Hilltop mall opened and downtown Richmond’s major retailers - Macy’s, JC Penny’s, Thrifty, & Woolworth’s – left for greener pastures. • The population continued to drop until the late 80s. • Over the past 20 years the Latino & Asian population has grown in Richmond while the white and black population has declined. • Richmond has become one of the most racially and ethnically diverse cities.
