Richmond Hill is a city in Bryan County near the Ogeechee River, with Interstate 95 passing through its western section. The municipality extends across a considerable area that blends developing neighborhoods with quieter residential spaces.

Originally called Ways Station, the city took its current name from Henry Ford's winter residence established along the Ogeechee River during the 1930s. This historical connection shaped the community's identity as it grew.
