SecondCityTimes publishes 10 fresh articles every day from 17 local source feeds. Our readers are Chicagoans who actually care — about their neighborhood, their city, their next great meal.
Every piece of content we publish falls into one of eight topic areas — giving advertisers precise targeting across Chicago's most relevant local verticals.
Our audience skews 25–40, skews Chicago-born or Chicago-committed, and has a high-trust relationship with the publication. They're the neighbors who go to community meetings, support local restaurants, and care about what happens three blocks from where they live. This is not a broad Chicago audience — it's an invested one.
