About Phoenix
Our Journey Begins: 2017
Phoenix was born out of a vision to create a digital space that celebrates and informs the vibrant city of Phoenix, Arizona. Founded in 2017, our website has grown from a passion project into a trusted news source for locals and visitors alike. We strive to fill an information gap that we identified in the online landscape—a need for a comprehensive, unbiased, and up-to-date platform dedicated solely to the heart and soul of Phoenix.

Filling the Gap: Why Phoenix?
The internet is overflowed with global news and general city information, but there was a distinct lack of focused, local content.

We aim to highlight the hidden gems, celebrate the achievements, and shed light on the challenges that shape our city.
