Bridgeport is one of the oldest districts in Richmond. Originally settled in 1867, Bridgeport has seen great changes, evolving from primarily wood products trades along the Fraser River to a diverse area with a variety of commercial and industrial developments and a long-time residential community. Bridgeport Real Estate offers all types of housing, detached homes, duplexes, condos, townhomes and even unique float homes are offered within the well-established area that offers easy access to schools, public transportation, shopping, and to the Oak or Knight Street Bridges into Vancouver. Tait Elementary, adjacent to Tait Park, and Cambie Secondary, are the neighbourhood schools.

The Bridgeport Road locale is a major and convenient retail mecca for large retail warehouse outlets including Costco, Ikea and Home Depot. The River Rock Casino Resort finds its home in the north-west area of Bridgeport.
