In the April 5, 2007 issue of Forbes magazine, Richmond was rated the nation's 14th best place for business. The city is ideally located in the center of the East Coast economic corridor with over 400 years of history as one of the leading political, financial and cultural centers in the Southeastern United States. Today, the city thrives on its strong, diverse, and growing economic base in manufacturing as well as in the financial services and distribution industries. Richmond is one of the nation's largest homes to corporate America, with 10 Fortune 1000 corporate headquarters and 7 Fortune 500 companies.
 Metro Richmond is the largest financial center in Virginia, primarily due to the location of the 5th Federal Reserve Bank in downtown Richmond. The Federal Reserve Bank serves Maryland, Virginia, North Carolina, West Virginia and Washington, DC. The Greater Richmond area includes Virginia's capital city of Richmond and the counties of Chesterfield, Hanover, and Henrico. The population of the Richmond MSA exceeds 1,000,000 and a growing international community adds to the area's cultural diversity and cosmopolitan character.
