The River Falls Journal is the only weekly paper in this rapidly growing community of about 10,000 people situated on the Kinnickinnic River, a nationally-known class I trout stream. While about half the workers make the 35-mile commute via all four-lane highway to Minneapolis-St. Paul for their jobs each day, the balance are employed locally at UW-River Falls and employers like Designer Doors, Kolpak, BioDiagnosics, QMR Plastics, Hal’s Millwork, O’Keefe Cabinets, Foley United, Best Maid Cookies, Sajan, Inc., Royal Finishing and a variety of retail outlets.

Our weekly newspaper, the River Falls Journal, circulates about 4,850 copies each Thursday while a free-distribution shopper, the Western Wisconsin Buyer’s Guide, publishes 12,500 copies each Friday for distribution by mail and contract carrier to River Falls and neighboring communities of Ellsworth, Spring Valley and Beldenville.

Our "Welcome Back" supplement is well received by the nearly 5,800 students who enroll at UW-River Falls campus each fall. The Journal has been recognized for editorial excellence many times by the Wisconsin Newspaper Association. In 2004, it finished 3rd for general excellence among about 50 newspapers in its circulation class.

A few years back, Demographics Daily named River Falls as one of “America's Dreamtowns”. River Falls’ median income and median home value are more than 15 percent above the national averages.
