About Southeast Express

The Southeast Express is a nonprofit newspaper of, for and by the remarkably diverse and vibrant, but economically redeveloping, southeast quadrant of Colorado Springs. The paper is the newest addition to Colorado Publishing House and is powered by the technical and logistical support of the Colorado Springs Independent, Colorado Springs Business Journal, the Manitou Springs-focused community newspaper The Pikes Peak Bulletin and the Colorado Military Newspaper Group.

The inaugural issue was delivered to about 30,000 addresses in the 80910 and 80916 ZIP codes in early February 2019. It also was delivered to select neighboring communities, and reached reach roughly 80,000 readers.

For the first year, we initially published every-other month, but we are now publishing monthly with a goal to eventually go weekly. In addition, we are building a dynamic digital communication presence that will provide regular news updates that are important to the community.

With the support of our sister papers and leadership team in place, the Southeast Express has the journalistic chops to provide excellent, community-focused journalism to Southeast Colorado Springs.

Our mission is "To be the premier print and digital partner to inform, celebrate, educate, empower and challenge the 80,000 vibrant and diverse residents of Southeast Colorado Springs."
