About Scottsdale Arizona
Our Story
Scottsdale Arizona was founded in 2017 with a simple yet powerful mission: to become the go-to news source for the vibrant and diverse community of Scottsdale, Arizona. We believe that every resident, visitor, and business owner deserves access to reliable, unbiased, and up-to-date information about this remarkable city.
Our journey began as a small team of dedicated journalists and tech enthusiasts who identified a gap in the local news landscape. They recognized that while Scottsdale was thriving with culture, business, and community events, there was a lack of centralized, high-quality online resources to keep residents informed. So, we set out to create a dynamic digital platform that would bridge this gap.
