The Canarsie Courier is a paid, independent weekly newspaper that was founded in April 1921. The newspaper's estimated circulation is less than 10,000, including paid, mailed subscriptions and subscribers to our Web site, as well as newsstand and over-the-counter sales. In addition to Canarsie, the Courier is distributed in such middle class south Brooklyn communities as Georgetown, Mill Basin, Bergen Beach, Marine Park, parts of East Flatbush and Starrett City, among others.

While the weekly focuses on local community news, it also offers readers a variety of features for the discriminating reader, plus local sports, culture news, guest columns, and opinion columns by in-house editors.
