Richmond neighborhoods being hit the hardest by high energy bills

A new report from Community Climate Collaborative shows that more than 28,000 Richmond households are spending an unaffordable share of their income on basic heat and electricity. According to the report, families in the East End and Southside face the highest burden, largely due to aging, inefficient housing that leaks energy and drives up bills even when people use less.

The report calls for weatherization programs, repair support for older homes, and stronger renter protections to help families stay safe and keep costs down.
