About Quinton
Quinton is a small unincorporated community in western New Kent County, on State Route 249 in the western portion of the county (per Wikipedia, read September 25, 2026). It is among the metro's most rural communities: farms, pine woods, and scattered homes with no commercial core to speak of. Its location on the SR-249 corridor puts it between Richmond and the Bottoms Bridge area, convenient for buyers who want genuine country living — acreage, horses, hunting land — within about half an hour of the city.
