For the neighborhood, see Potrero Hill, San Francisco, California.

Potrero Hills is a range of low hills on the western edge of Richmond, California.

The ridge is covered with chaparral and lies between San Pablo Bay to the west and north, and Castro Cove to the east. The Chevron Richmond Refinery is just east of the range. Winehaven lies on its western slopes, and was once the largest winery in the United States. The area is currently isolated from the urban core and serves as habitat for deer and other creatures. The southern end of the ridge developed with many houses in the historic Point Richmond neighborhood. Part of the western coast is part of Point Molate Regional Park. A pass is carved into it at its southern end for Interstate 580. Some of the ridge was also formerly used for goat grazing and quarrying. A weather station sits atop a peak overlooking Point San Pablo.
