Länsi-Uusimaa is a regional Finnish-language newspaper published six times per week, serving the western Uusimaa region of Finland. The Wednesday edition is distributed as a blanket delivery to all households within the newspaper’s distribution area. The publication’s headquarters are located in Lohja, although it was originally established in Hanko in 1915.[1]
Länsi-Uusimaa is produced by Etelä-Suomen Media, a subsidiary of the Keskisuomalainen media group. In addition to Lohja, the newspaper’s distribution area encompasses the municipalities of Ingå, Raseborg, Vihti, Karkkila, and Siuntio. In March 2015, Länsi-Uusimaa adopted the tabloid format. Subsequently, in 2019, the publication schedule was revised so that the newspaper is now issued every day except Monday.[2][3]
