Goochland County, Virginia, is a fast-growing community with deep historical roots, located about 20 miles west of Richmond. Established in 1728 and named for Sir William Gooch, the county originally served as a frontier region favored by settlers for its fertile soil and abundant natural resources. The James River played a key role in transporting goods like tobacco and wheat, and the completion of the Kanawha Canal in the 1840s further boosted trade in the area. Today, Goochland covers 282 square miles and had an estimated population of 27,197 in 2023—a 10% rise since 2020. The population is primarily White (82.1%), with Black or African American residents making up 13.7%, and Hispanic or Latino residents accounting for 3.9%. The county is relatively affluent, with a median household income of $118,695 and a median home value of $433,600. Its economy thrives on sectors like agriculture, forestry, and mining, while the West Creek Business Park has attracted major companies such as the Virginia Farm Bureau and Performance Food Group. With its mix of rich history, economic opportunity, and natural beauty, Goochland is an increasingly desirable place to live and work.
