It currently publishes three free alternative weekly newspapers in Northern California: Metro Silicon Valley, Metro Santa Cruz and the North Bay Bohemian.

The publications are free-distribution, tabloid-sized newspapers emphasizing news and analysis, local coverage and in-depth coverage of arts, culture and entertainment. Its Boulevards subsidiary operates city guides on the web internationally, under such URLs as Seattle. com and LosAngeles. com. Founded in 1985, the Metro weekly began celebrating its 25th year starting in March 2009, making it the most established free weekly in the South Bay Area of Northern California. It was one of the first newspapers to publish Matt Groening's Life in Hell and Rob Brezsny's Real Astrology. The company is operated by its founder and longtime executive editor, Dan Pulcrano. Metro Santa Cruz began publishing in 1994. The same year, Metro Newspapers purchased the Sonoma County Independent, which, in October 2000, expanded its distribution to cover Napa and Marin counties and is now published under the North Bay Bohemian flag.
