Like other towns in the GTA, Richmond Hill's election centred on the municipality's rapid population growth. Richmond Hill's population is expected to swell to 277,900 by 2041, according to forecasts in the town's economic development update. That would double its population from 2001.

Like many 905 municipalities, Richmond Hill has struggled to keep housing prices and taxes low amid rapid population growth, while maintaining green spaces and having enough money for infrastructure repairs.

Transit was also a fixture of the campaign. A 7.4-kilometre subway extension line is planned to run from Finch station to Highway 7, but questions remain over whether the project will actually get built.
