Richmond is somewhat more northern in its urban development because of its heavy industry and its high density development patterns which enable it to have much more in common with cities like Baltimore, Philadelphia, and Washington DC. It is southern in terms of cultural and social norms. Richmond city proper and its suburban counties are quite conservative like most of the South. Therefore Richmond could be considered a city where both the North and South meet and blend in.
