About Us: Welcome to Flagstaff
Our Journey and Mission
Flagstaff was founded in 2017 with a vision to become the go-to news source for the vibrant community of Flagstaff, Arizona. We aim to bridge the gap between the people and the city by delivering accurate, unbiased, and engaging local news. Our journey began as a passion project, but quickly evolved into a dedicated platform to serve our community's informational needs.
The Need for Reliable Local News
In today's digital age, the internet is brimming with information, but not all sources are created equal. We identified a significant gap in reliable and up-to-date local news coverage for Flagstaff residents. Many national media outlets only scratch the surface of local stories, leaving a void that we aimed to fill. Our mission is to provide an unbiased, accurate, and comprehensive source of news, enabling our readers to stay informed and engaged with their city.
