About Us

City & State is the premier media organization dedicated to covering New York’s local and state politics and policy. Our in-depth, non-partisan coverage serves New York’s leaders every day as a trusted guide to the issues impacting New York. We offer round-the-clock coverage through our award-winning reporting and analysis, weekly magazine, daily newsletters, events and more.

Founded by Tom Allon in 2006 as the monthly publication City Hall, we launched The Capitol soon after, and merged the two magazines under the the name City & State in 2011. City & State was purchased in 2021 by Government Executive Media Group, a media, data and research company based in Washington, D.C.
