Richardson Springs (formerly, Mud Springs) is an unincorporated community in Butte County, California. It is located on Mud Creek north-northeast of Chico, at an elevation of 620 feet (189 m). The place is named for J.H. and Lee Richardson, who founded spas here in 1898. A post office was opened in 1933.
