A paper the size of a neighborhood
Neighborly News is a hyperlocal monthly periodical with a simple job: to help the people of Cooper Street, Huckleberry Drive, and the cul-de-sacs between them make connections and build a real community.
We are not the big paper downtown. We do not cover the world. We cover the block — the giving gardens, the good dogs, the block parties, the piano that needs a home.
Every word is written by neighbors, for neighbors. It is free, it always will be, and it lands on your doorstep and in your inbox the first of every month.
What we believe
Kind by default
We assume the best of our neighbors and write like it. Trust is the whole business model.
Useful over urgent
No outrage, no doom. Just the community resources, dates, and names that make daily life easier.
Everyone’s a reporter
The best tips come from you. If it matters on your street, it belongs in these pages.
How each issue comes together
You tell us something
A tip, a photo, a good deed, a piano. Everything we print starts as a neighbor speaking up.
We knock and listen
A volunteer neighbor visits, takes a photo, and gets the story right — over coffee, usually.
We lay out the issue
Seven columns, one masthead, no ads. The same comforting rhythm every single month.
It lands on your doorstep
First of the month, in your inbox and on your porch. Then you tell us the next thing.
