Fayetteville is Nielsen market #129. Fayetteville has a remarkably small number of signals for the size of the market, only 11 FM signals and 7 AM signals according to BIA. The market is part of the Raleigh-Durham television DMA. Since television comes out of Raleigh, TV takes a relatively small piece of the advertising pie. The rest of the broadcast advertising budget is split amongst only 18 signals. These factors combine to make Fayetteville an exceptional Radio market.
The city is the fourth-largest in North Carolina and is the home of Fort Bragg, the nation’s largest military installation. Fort Bragg is headquarters to the US Army’s Special Operations Command and XVIII Airborne Corps. Notable units stationed at Fort Bragg include the 82nd Airborne Division, 3rd Special Forces Group, and Delta Force. Time magazine has identified Fayetteville as “America’s Most Pro-Military Town” for its support of military families.
The city boasts one of the best retail markets in the country because of the $4.5 billion dollars in annual economic impact coming from Fort Bragg. Fayetteville is also home to Fayetteville State University, an HBCU, Methodist University, and Fayetteville Technical Community College.
WMRV can be operated as a stand-alone station or purchased in combination with WFAY 1230AM and/or W271DR in Fayetteville to create a super-duopoly. All inquiries through the broker/owner please.
