Rihsport's population of eight and a quarter million people, including its suburban areas, is plurality Fhainn, with a close segment of Sheafhainn and smaller Coscivian and Burgundine minorities. The majority of Burgundine and Coscivian residents live in the urban core, though only Burgundine and the few Aenglish or other foreign residents have formed local enclaves. The city sees several hundred thousand foreign passers-through and temporary residents annually for business or travel, which helps support continued growth of services and expansion of the city over time. Rihsport natives form one of the most outgoing and welcoming regional cultures in the country, and play an outsized role in representing western Faneria culturally and globally.

The economy of Rihsport is primarily based around its sea access, and the city is a major site of trade for vessels unable to pass the [[Grand Vandarch Canal]] or unwilling to pay the additional tariffs to do so, while also being safer to navigate and closer to markets in the Vandarch regions than secondary ports in Kurikila and Mullcirit to the north. Shipbuilding, primarily for the Fhainnin military, is a major jobs provider for the city, and Rihsport also serves as a rail and warehousing hub. These key sectors are supported by a robust and growing service industry, including entertainment companies such as globally-selling [[Floodgates Historic Gaming]] and several energy and resource corporation nerve centers. Rihsport is also a primary internet data route hub for Faneria and North Levantia in general.
