The Times does not provide advertising figures for its zoned editions.
The Times introduced its first suburban section in 1952, becoming the first metropolitan newspaper to create zoned editions.
Now a new zoned edition is planned for East Bay communities like Oakland and Berkeley.
The paper was the first in the country to introduce local zoned editions for both news and advertising.
However, it also produced a zoned edition for the neighboring city of Millville.
Many publications already create zoned editions, reshaping editorial content geographically.
Some publish zoned editions with news and advertising tailored to certain neighborhoods.
The Miami Herald, which began zoning in 1977, now produces nine zoned editions each day and 12 neighborhood sections twice a week.
As the content can vary widely, zoned editions are often produced in parallel.
Newspapers have also been printing zoned editions for a generation.
