Richfield Overview

Richfield is located in Hennepin County, has a population of less than 40,000, and is a Minneapolis-St. Paul suburb. You'll find that Richfield apartments offer a home in an area that's the epicenter of everything that Minnesota has to offer, where both families and single professionals can enjoy a mix of urban and suburban landscapes. Richfield is minutes south of downtown Minneapolis and the famous Mall of America. You'll find many restaurants, parks, and plenty of shopping all close to home.

What is the history of Richfield?

Richfield has a long history, beginning in 1820 when it was a suburb to Minnesota's first military base, Fort Snelling. Before 1867 Richfield was farmland that stretched north from Minneapolis's Lake Street to Bloomington on the south. And the boundary ran from the Mississippi River west, all the way to what is now Highway 169. After 1867, Richfield started shrinking as industry began to take over. By the time Minneapolis grew into an urban community, Richfield had shrunk to the seven square miles that it occupies today.

How is the weather in Richfield?

There are over three and a half months of warm weather from the end of May through mid-September, with daily highs averaging between 72°F and 84°F.

From the end of November through early March, the average daily highs hit the mid-30s. The last weeks of January are the coldest, averaging between 10°F and 24°F.
