Name given to the small town in Maine, which is nestled on the banks of the Kennebec river. Its defining characteristics are its townfolk who are obsessed with gossip and the degradation of others in order to make oneself feel more superior, thus enabling it to not only be the name of a town, but an adjective.
Girl One:Did you hear that Tracy just signed up for food stamps?
Girl Two: Oh my God, I know. She's so trashy.
Girl One: Right. Like seriously, I haven't been on welfare for weeks.
Girl Two: Me either. Hey, do you want to go with me to cash my social security check?
Passer by: You guys are sooooo Richmond.

Adj; acting a certain way that for the most part is not cool. However, the word carries several different meanings but simply put, means not being cool, insecure, overweight, etc.

Richmond-upon-thames. A very nice area in London but very expensive. Peaceful in the day and wild in the night. Named after Richmond Castle in North Yorkshire by Henry VII, in which the North Yorkshire town of Richmond (the first ever Richmond in the world) was named after the Normandy town of Richemont. Nonetheless, Richmond-upon-thames a great place.

Richmond, BC- A western municipality of the Greater Vancouver area located on a very flat island with the river on two sides and ocean on the other. Historically a quaint fishing town with a seaside village located at the south end of town. A truly picturesque setting with lots of West-coast and Japanese-inspired architecture...one of those places where there are no bad parts of town.
Enter the immigrants. The quaint fish-and-chips village turns into bustling city with 80 condo towers, with dozens more under construction, and many Asian malls. About half the restaurants, (Chinese, Japanese, Korean) in Vancouver are in Richmond. The night market is also here.
Yes, the Asians account for 60% of the residents here and outside of city hall they are a dominating presence that you cannot avoid. Everywhere you will see high school FOBS rolling around in their beamers and beeping their cell phones.
Richmond has fast become the most favored suburb in the GVRD and hated by eastern municipalities that never get any attention...vast majority of the Olympic budget is slated for Richmond (Canada line, speed skating oval). This fair city is also located next to the island airport of YVR and is a 20 minute drive from downtown Vancouver.
Residents generally have some extra money and can access many recreational activities close at hand, including biking, swimming, skating, yoga, kayaking, whale watching, beachcombing...so it isn't surprising that Richmond is the healthiest city in Canada with a mean life expectancy of 84 years!
Despite its great location and all its amenities, Richmond is still a flood plain and housing prices are still relatively cheap compared to Vancouver. A family moving here can still afford a decent house for under $700,000. Yes, a mere 700k, that's how we talk in BC.

In Richmond I live by the ocean in peace and can hear the sounds of seagulls in the warm breezy air.
