A substantial proportion of Darlington & Stockton Times readers live in rural areas, and it contains information and news relating to farming issues.

It was one of the last UK newspapers to devote its front page entirely to adverts; a practice that persisted until 1997. Compact format replaced broadsheet in 2009.
