A well-known example is Block Club Chicago — it’s a neighborhood-by-neighborhood, block-by-block local news outlet focused on practical, community-centered reporting across specific Chicago districts and neighborhoods.

If you meant similar sources in other cities, a few other local-news models with a comparable hyperlocal approach include:

  • The City (New York City) — citywide, but often very neighborhood-focused
  • The Seattle Times’ local/neighborhood coverage sections
  • Brooklyn Paper / The Local-style neighborhood outlets
  • Voice of San Diego — more district/community-focused in its reporting model

If you want, I can give you a list organized by city or by district/neighborhood news style.
