Welcome to Richmond Beach in Shoreline, Washington
Welcome to one of the most inviting, vibrant, scenic, involved and “event-full” neighborhoods in the region.
Located in the northwest corner of King County and the City of Shoreline, Richmond Beach was noted for these qualities when it was named one of the 2010 Best Places to Live by Seattle Metropolitan magazine. Our community also has vibrant volunteers dedicated to informing and enriching our community via Printed Newsletter. We have once again won "1st Place Winner, Printed Format Newsletter, Not-for-Profit Organization" awarded by NUSA. Richmond Beach Community Association (RBCA) is a Century Corporation having been incorporated for over 100 years. The Association remains a vital force in maintaining the neighborhood’s quality of life by bringing neighbors together at events, keeping them informed, and facilitating neighborhood enhancements. |

The purposes of the RBCA are to:
- Keep residents aware and informed of issues by providing forums that create the opportunity for residents to form and express ideas, opinions, and needs.
- Promote and produce social events and projects that generate a sense of neighborhood and enjoyment among residents.
- Nurture engagement among the Richmond Beach community, the City of Shoreline, and surrounding communities.
The Marge Unruh Community Service Award was created in 1999 to recognize individuals in Richmond Beach who get involved and make this a great place to live.
