Litchfield Magazine

Litchfield Magazine Ads, from $1,000 a Page.

The northwest hills read their own book: Litchfield Magazine covers the county's towns, farms, inns and the weekend money that keeps them busy. Pages start around $1,000. Here is the math.

The First Congregational Church on the Litchfield green

The average Moffly reader's household earns $1,073,000 a year. That's the coffee table.

The Straight Answer

The hills' own glossy, read by locals and weekenders alike.

Litchfield Magazine, a title with roots in the TownVibe stable that defined the category from 2002 to 2020, covers the county's distinctive mix: working towns, protected land, and Manhattan's weekend houses.

That dual audience is the buy: year-round residents who hire locally, and second-home owners who renovate, landscape and dine like tourists with deeds. Few books deliver both in one page.

2002 is when the TownVibe stable that built Litchfield Magazine began publishing the region's town glossies.

The Process

How Buying Works

Three steps from budget to live, in plain English.

Sell to Both Audiences at Once

Time the Seasons

The hills run on seasons: spring projects, summer visitors, fall foliage traffic, holiday markets. Match insertions to your busy months.

Book the Year

County books reward constancy; annual schedules earn the discounts and the placements readers remember.

Questions

Litchfield Magazine Questions, Answered Straight.

How much does a Litchfield Magazine ad cost?

Full pages start around $1,000 per issue, half pages around $600, and premium positions from about $1,800, with annual schedules discounting meaningfully. County glossies price well under the Gold Coast books for the same page.

Who reads Litchfield Magazine?

The northwest corner's blend: year-round residents of the county's towns and the weekend homeowners who arrive Friday with renovation plans. Both audiences keep the book around, hill-country style.

Which businesses fit the county book?

The project economy: builders, landscapers, stonework, antiques, inns and restaurants, galleries, and the professional services both audiences hire. If weekenders write your biggest checks, this is their book.

Litchfield Magazine or a Seasons edition?

Litchfield covers the hills' identity in one county glossy; Seasons' Farmington Valley edition free-mails the suburbs next door. Businesses straddling Route 44 often run both for less than one Gold Coast page.

Also Asked

How much does magazine advertising cost in Connecticut?

Neighbourhood magazines start around $200 a month, town books around $500, and a half page in a regional glossy from about $600 an issue. Many offer category exclusivity, meaning your competitor cannot appear alongside you. Magazine rates

Do neighbourhood magazines work?

In affluent towns, unusually well. They are mailed free to specific streets, stay in the house for weeks, and often sell category exclusivity so your competitor cannot appear. From about $200 a month, they are one of the few print buys that still makes obvious sense. Neighbourhood magazines

What advertising works best for reaching wealthy Connecticut households?

Regional magazines and precise digital targeting. Greenwich has a median household income of $206,130 and the Moffly titles reach readers averaging over a million. Those towns are small enough to target street by street, which reach-based buying wastes. Moffly Media rates
