Richmond (c-eniconˈrɪtʃmənd) is a city largely within Wayne Township, Wayne County, in east central Indiana, United States, which borders Ohio. The city also includes the Richmond Municipal Airport, which is in Boston Township and separated from the rest of the city. It is sometimes called the "cradle of recorded jazz" because some early jazz records were made here at the studio of Gennett Records, a division of the Starr Piano Company.

Richmond is the county seat of Wayne County. The city's 2000 population was 36,812. Like many cities that formerly depended on manufacturing, Richmond is having to create a new economy. Its rich architectural heritage and Main Street attest to a strong base. The city has twice received the All-America City Award, most recently in a youth-initiated 2009 effort.

First team video for Richmond, Indiana. Near the end of the video it shows an underbar twice. I apologize for that, but it is 5:00 AM and my mind is hating me enough...lol. I have tried to make this video on 3 different computers, and this computer actually let me. Thank God and Stormy Rife!!!! :) So, here it is, and I hope you enjoy :D Edit: And now I have to change the soundtrack so now it is no Live Your Life, it is Beat Boxing by some random guy. Sorry for the inconvenience. This song is pretty cool though.

There are 62 amazingly beautiful Tiffany windows at Reid Memorial Presbyterian Chruch in Richmond, Indiana. There is also a 1906 organ considered to be one of the finest in America built by Hook and Hastings House of Boston. This is a short tour of the windows with Carolyn Ripp playing the Adagio by Tomaso Albinoni with the Chanticleer String Quartet. Crank it up loud, sit back and be amazed.
