Shaw Suburban Media
Not your ordinary media company

Shaw Suburban Media of Greater Chicago serves some of the fastest growing communities in the nation. Because of the dynamic nature of our region, we consider “business as usual” an unacceptable approach.

Unlike many traditional media companies, we have grown dramatically in recent years, launching and acquiring dozens of new print and online publications.

Our commitment to our associates, our customers, and the First Amendment remains as steadfast today as it did 150 years ago when our first publication was launched in Woodstock, Illinois.

We are committed to the communities we serve and we are determined to find creative ways to help you grow your business.

Shaw Suburban Media is where the growth is – on Chicago’s Suburban Frontier

From 2005 to 2025, the market area of DeKalb, Kane, Lake, and McHenry counties is projected to grow an amazing 34%.

Kane and McHenry counties lead the way with projected growth of 46%.

Several communities in Shaw Suburban Media’s market area are projected to more than double in population, including Gilberts, Huntley, Hampshire, and Elburn.

The majority of residents moving to the Suburban Frontier are coming from Chicago and other suburbs. These new residents possess household income and education levels well above national averages.
