Demographics of a Catholic Reader
• On the subject of demographics, Catholics consume more of just about
everything when compared with the general public.
• They are 2.5 times more likely to take vacations of more
than 100 miles from home.
• The St. Augustine Catholic appeals to all ages: 49% (60
years and older) and 51% (59 years or younger).

exceed $50,000 annually.
Why are magazines a good buy for reaching these
demographics?
Magazine readers in particular are more likely to take action as
a result of seeing your ad, according to the Magazine Publishers
of America and magazines are the medium of choice for Influential
Americans. They turn to magazines the most for making purchase decisions
and recommendations.
So, if you want to influence people to use your financial services,
hire your law firm, take a cruise or buy a car, use magazine advertising.
See www.magazine.org. And while junk mail is tossed immediately,
our magazine delivers your message in a way that is inviting and
involving, and with the blessing of our bishop. We call it the halo
effect!
