It’s an age thing

The vast majority of Boulder Weekly‘s readership falls within the ages of 18-54. Where some publications primarily reach only a young or older demographic, a broad range of ages are picking up Boulder Weekly— including the most important range for consumer spending.

It’s a lifestyle thing

Dynamic consumers: Boulder Weekly readers dramatically exceed market averages in over 30 spending categories. It’s no wonder given their elevated levels of education, income and professional/technical occupations.

It’s a perspective thing

Fact: Daily newspaper readership is in sharp decline.
Distinguished by provocative news reporting, engaging arts and entertainment reviews, and in-depth coverage of issues both local and global, Boulder Weekly attracts readers who’ve abandoned the daily newspaper habit, reaching 50% more 25-54 year olds than the closest competition.
