What a busy, exciting year 2018 has been for us here at The Livingston Post. Our local, independent community information and opinion site enjoyed over 1.625 million page views this year — an increase of 147 percent over 2017.
This kind of growth happened because no one else in the community provides the kind of unique content and commentary you’ll find here. We waded through this year’s posts to pull out the Top 18 stories. We hope you enjoy the list, whether you’ve read the pieces when they were first published, or whether you’re reading them for the first time.
In addition to our unique content and commentary, we are proud of The Livingston Post serving as the media sponsor for a host of community events and activities, including the Primary and General Election Candidate Forums, the ARC Celebrity Fashion Show, the LACASA Garden Tour and its Denim & Diamond’s event.
Here are our Top 18 for 2018, in no particular order. Enjoy!
