led by local women

A CURATED NETWORK OF LOCAL VOICES

City Living Network is a collection of independently run city guides across the country β€” each led by a woman sharing the places, people, and experiences that shape her town.

HOW THE NETWORK BEGAN

From one guide to a national collective

City Living Network began with a single city guide β€” built on a simple idea:

Highlight the best of your town with consistency and a REAL local perspective.

As it grew, other women began building the same in their own towns. What started as one guide became a collective of curated platforms across the country.

Today, each editor builds her own presence locally β€” supported by shared resources and a network of women doing the same.

Our editors don’t just cover their towns β€” they live them.

From neighborhood faves to new openings and weekend plans, each guide reflects the unique vibe of its city.
