Bon Air, Virginia Details
Overview of Bon Air, Virginia
There was a small settlement at the site as early as 1864. It soon developed into a health resort for Richmond’s wealthier residents. The cleaner air in the country drew people out of the city for holidays. Part of the community is a National Historic District because of its many 19th and 20th century Victorian homes.
Most of the housing stock is much newer than this, but still tends to be rather old. Older architectural styles dominate as well. The income, demographic, and housing characteristics of this community all point to it being a solid, middle-class suburb.
Economic and Demographic Characteristics
This is a middle-class community now, and the housing stock reflects this. While there are apartments for rent, most residents live in medium or large homes. Bon Air has more 4- and 5-bedroom homes than 96% of neighborhoods in the United States. There are quite a few smaller homes, but also a few that have even more than five bedrooms.
The home styles are diverse, but stick style, Queen Anne, and Late Victorian styles are common. In spite of its history as a resort, most of the homes are only moderately old, built between 1940 and 1969.
Economic statistics show that this is a largely middle-class community. The median income for households was $72,124 in 2015, a substantial increase from $57,893 in 2010, for example. The poverty rate that year was an exceptionally low 1.8%. Those numbers suggest a community that is very popular with middle-class families.
The median real estate price of $217,123 ($271,055 for detached homes) here places the community above 71% of neighborhoods in the United States and below the average of $257,800 for the Commonwealth as a whole. The average rent is well above the national average of $1,537 as well. The average home value more than doubled between 2000 and 2015. Whether owned or rented, homes here are popular enough to keep the vacancy rate below 4%.
The community further stands out from the average neighborhood in at least two ways. More people over 5 speak Polish as their primary language than almost any other neighborhood in the country. There is also a Japanese-language weekend school. The residents are from diverse cultural backgrounds, with large minorities from Poland, Ireland, and Germany.
In 2010, the population was 16,366, an increase of only 0.9% from 2000. The population is mostly composed of owners who vary widely in age, rather than tending toward being older or younger. But, the residents are well educated. In 2010, 46.3% of residents age 25 and over had at least a Bachelor’s degree. The median age was 42 years in 2010, somewhat older than the Commonwealth’s median age of 38.2.
In addition to cultural and religious diversity, this community offers access to a wide range of attractions by virtue of being near to Richmond and other middle-class and upper-class suburbs.

Calvin and Ashley are great! They are the reason we can invest in the area from out of state. They have a great network of individuals to address everything we need. They are quick to respond to our every question and concern. Far superior to our other property managers in two other states, so much that we are liquidating those houses to buy more in Richmond for them to manage. Peace of mind is priceless and that is what we have with Keyrenter Property Management Richmond!
Katrina M., Satisfied Client
From Day One, through move in, Calvin and Ashley have been attentive, super responsive and overall pleasant to deal with through this entire process. My husband and I are renting a beautiful property from them, and we couldn't be more pleased. I would definitely recommend them and they'll be our first call if we decide to rent again!
Tamika T., Satisfied Tenant
My wife and I are new clients of Keyrenter Richmond as of May 2018. The experience has been so far beyond what we expected. We had previously dealt with another company for our rental house and had a totally bad experience. Calvin and Ashley took us on and worked hard to provide a quality client and take care of all our concerns. Nothing was left to chance. They are always easy to contact and return emails and calls promptly. If you have property in the Richmond area you would do well to consider Keyrenter Richmond as your agent.
Barry L., Satisfied Client
The service you get with Ashley and Calvin is truly over the top. I was very nervous having someone manage my property. I relocated to a different country, which makes it very difficult to manage a property from a far, and Ashley and Calvin have really made it the easiest thing ever. I wish I found them years ago.
