The Berkshires town of Richmond retains its rustic charm through progressive zoning bylaws and a newly-enacted local wetland bylaw. Richmond Pond (Mass. DFW pdf) is a 226 acre raised natural pond with a town beach and state boat ramp. Primarily residential, with many part-time residents from Boston and NYC, Richmond has just a few small businesses and several orchards and farms. Part-time residents include Gov. Deval Patrick.
