West Valley Post is an independent local news publication focused on the communities, public decisions and major projects shaping Arizona’s West Valley.
Our primary coverage area includes Surprise, Peoria, Glendale, Goodyear, Buckeye and the surrounding Loop 303, US 60 and northwest Phoenix growth corridors.
Ownership
West Valley Post is independently owned by a citizen of Surprise with a passion for local news and a strong interest in the growth and future of the West Valley.
The publication’s goal is to make important local information easier to discover, verify and understand as the region grows.
What we cover
West Valley Post focuses on development and zoning, business and major employers, transportation and infrastructure, local government, public policy, healthcare expansion and other changes with a meaningful impact on West Valley residents.
How we report
We prioritize original and primary sources: city and county agendas, staff reports, ordinances, planning documents, agency notices, project materials and other public records. We link to source documents whenever practical so readers can inspect the evidence behind a story.
West Valley Post uses artificial-intelligence tools to assist with research, drafting, editing and publication. Automation helps us review more public information than a small local publication otherwise could, but it does not change our obligation to distinguish confirmed facts from projections, proposals, analysis and opinion.
Publisher and bylines
Articles published under the West Valley Post byline represent the publication rather than an individual reporter. We do not invent personal reporting credentials, interviews or eyewitness observations. When a story relies on a company statement, government record or other outside source, that source should be identified in the article.
News tips, source documents, corrections and general newsroom correspondence can be sent to news@westvalleypost.com.
