Richmond is a minor suburb of Christchurch, New Zealand.

Situated to the inner north east of the city centre, the suburb is bounded by Shirley Road to the north, Hills Road to the west, and the Avon River to the south and east.

In 2018, ongoing earthquake repairs and flood mitigation work were causing disruption within Richmond.[3]
