Readers of the Long Beach Post spent the equivalent of 10 years, 231 days, 14 hours, 53 minutes and 15 seconds reading our coverage online throughout 2018.

Which stories were the most read this year? The answers surprised us: Certainly the murder of Capt. David Rosa dominated coverage, along with crime and breaking news, but readers were also interested in local restaurants and the bar scene, mosquito outbreaks, and the marriage of Mayor Robert Garcia.
