Midlothian-South Richmond Homes for Rent

Midlothian-South Richmond, located just west of Manchester and south of the Midlothian Turnpike, is less than 6 miles from downtown Richmond. This neighborhood features a mix of commercial areas, multifamily low-income housing, and some single-family homes, including brick and vinyl-clad split-level and ranch-style houses. The area is popular among those working downtown or at nearby hospitals, thanks to its proximity to Chippenham and Virginia Hospitals and major routes like Chippenham Parkway and Route 301. Public transportation is accessible with Greater Richmond Transit Company stops along Warwick Road. Midlothian Turnpike has a variety of dining options, particularly Mexican and Latin American eateries, and shopping venues like Family Thrift Center and Goodwill. For groceries, residents frequent Bay Seafood Market, Save-A-Lot, and two nearby Food Lions. Outdoor enthusiasts can visit Forest Hill Park, which features historic sites, trails, and recreational facilities, or Carter Jones Park with its newly renovated playground. The Southside Community Center on Old Warwick Road is undergoing a significant revitalization, promising new amenities like an auxiliary gymnasium, boxing studio, culinary teaching kitchen, and Richmond’s first indoor playground.
