New Richmond Township, WI Real Estate and Community Highlights

New Richmond Township Area Information

Located in the St. Croix area of the greater Minneapolis region, New Richmond is a charming community with roots dating back to the 1850s.

Early in its history, New Richmond’s growth was largely driven by the timber industry. But as that resource became more scarce, the local community diversified, becoming a thriving business epicenter for the surrounding farm areas.

Unfortunately, in June 1889, the state’s deadliest tornado on record ripped through the city, destroying more than 200 buildings. But the community’s strength persevered and residents rebuilt the community even better than it was before.

Often referred to as the City Beautiful, New Richmond is roughly 40 miles east of the St. Paul/Minneapolis metropolitan area and is home to around 10,000 people.

Perhaps one of the greatest attractions to New Richmond is its bustling Main Street, which offers an array of services, from financial to professional. It also has several shops and specialty shops.
