Who We Are

About Us

We are Richmond Hill's community magazine — independently published, locally focused, and proudly delivered free to over 10,000 homes every month.

Our Story

Two Decades of
Community Storytelling

Richmond Hill Life Magazine was born from a simple idea: that every community deserves a publication that truly belongs to it. Not a corporate chain, not a regional supplement — a real, independent magazine made by and for the people of Richmond Hill.

Since our founding, we have covered thousands of local stories — from city council decisions that shape our neighbourhoods to the quiet acts of kindness that define our community's character. We've celebrated local heroes, spotlighted small businesses, and given residents a platform to share their voices.

Today, Richmond Hill Life reaches more homes than ever before. But our mission hasn't changed: to be the publication that Richmond Hill residents trust, enjoy, and feel proud to call their own.

What Drives Us

Our Values

Community First

Every editorial decision we make starts with one question: does this serve the people of Richmond Hill? Our readers are our neighbours, and we take that responsibility seriously.

Honest Journalism

We report local stories with accuracy, fairness, and respect. We give voice to all sides of the community — from city hall to the corner café.

Inclusive Coverage

Richmond Hill is one of Canada's most diverse cities. Our magazine reflects that diversity — celebrating every culture, background, and neighbourhood that makes this city great.

Local Excellence

We champion local businesses, artists, athletes, and volunteers who go above and beyond to make Richmond Hill a better place to live.
