Welcome to Desert Sunrise News, a better news source for Arizonans who want to know the real impact behind the daily headlines they read elsewhere.

In other words, if you’re more interested in identifying trends and related solutions instead of just reading hit-and-run coverage that barely scratches the surface when it comes to issues related to the development of the Arizona Sun Corridor , this site is for you.

Not familiar with the Sun Corridor? Click here to read what the Morrison Institute has to say about it and on the other links on this page to see what the experts are predicting for Arizona’s future.

We’re already working on our first major projects but are open to news tips and submissions for future investigation and possible publication.

Meanwhile, we’ll continue posting smaller items of interest and hope you’ll continue to check in to see what’s new.

So far, you’ve been doing just that in greater numbers almost daily.

Desert Sunrise News is centrally located in Maricopa, making real-time coverage from across the state’s  major population centers in Maricopa, Pima and Pinal counties possible.

The importance of access to news that matters from areas in and around your home will likely become more apparent as the state’s Sun Corridor grows from Flagstaff to Sierra Vista.

From time to time, DSN will tackle border issues in the far southern corner of the state or issues pertinent in northern Arizona. The primary focus, however, will be on how what’s happening there affects the most densely populated areas in Maricopa, Pima and Pinal counties.

We have also chosen two communities to highlight, Maricopa and Goodyear, because of their phenomenal growth. As trends change, we may adjust this focus.

Thanks for joining us. We hope you enjoy what you see and become part of the Desert Sunrise News family of readers and supporters.
