Comstock's is a monthly business publication in the Sacramento Region. The magazine was founded in 1989 by Winnie Comstock-Carlson, who serves as president and publisher.[2][3][4]

The magazine focuses on issues surrounding economic vitality with the mission of connecting businesses and professionals to the resources they need to be successful through its coverage of various industries prominent in the region. Coverage spans Amador, El Dorado, Nevada, Placer, Sacramento, San Joaquin, Solano, Sutter, Yolo and Yuba counties. In addition to the monthly print magazine, Comstock's publishes between 10 and 15 web-only stories every month.

Beginning in 1995, Comstock's annually produced a regional guide to nonprofits and foundations, called Capital Region Cares.[5]

In 2016, Comstock's launched a podcast called “Action Items.” “Action Items” ended in 2019, but Comstock's continues to produce audio stories under the title “Comstock's Talks.”[6]

Comstock's has received several awards from the California News Publishers Association, including first place for General Excellence in 2019[7] and 14 awards in the 2020 contest.[8] In the past, Comstock's also won several awards from the now-defunct Western Publishing Association, including best cover, best business finance magazine, and best web publication.[9][10][11]
