**AARP reports that new survey findings** from GfK MRI finds that *AARP The Magazine (ATM)* is officially America’s most-read magazine. According to AARP, “*ATM*, AARP’s monthly magazine and flagship publication, continues to serve as a primary source of information and entertainment for people age 50-plus – with a readership of 38.3 million – the largest of any magazine in the U.S., according to data from market research firm GfK MRI.

“In less than 10 years, *ATM* has moved from America’s fourth most-read magazine to No. 1, while increasing readership by 5.1 million. According to the latest MRI data, two-thirds (66%) of *ATM* readers read four out of four issues, a figure that has remained steady in 10+ years of measurement.

“”We are honored for *AARP The Magazine* to be recognized by MRI as America’s most-read magazine and look forward to *ATM* continuing to deliver strong value for readers and advertisers alike,” said AARP CEO Jo Ann Jenkins.

“Following *AARP The Magazine* in readership numbers are *People, Better Homes and Gardens, National Geographic, The Costco Connection, Good Housekeeping, Reader’s Digest, Time, Sports Illustrated* and *Southern Living*, according to MRI.

“Every month, *ATM* delivers high quality content via three versions of the magazine, each geared to a different demographic – one for readers age 50 to 59, one for those 60 to 69, and one for those 70-plus. *ATM* includes health and fitness features, financial guidance, consumer information and tips, celebrity interviews, and book and movie reviews. AARP has published its magazine for members since its founding in 1958.”
