Alamosa Citizen

Since we launched in August 2021, AlamosaCitizen.com has been free for all to read with no paywall because we believe you deserve access to independent journalism that keeps you connected and informed. We also believe that we produce reporting that you won’t get anywhere else. 

We’re proud of what we’ve started.

People tell us that The Citizen truly makes a difference in their lives — that no one else covers water, the outdoors and arts & culture like we do, or with such transparency and care. They tell us they enjoy our podcasts and videos, and find The Valley Calendar to be essential. 

Journalism with this kind of impact is free to consume, but expensive to produce.

Alamosa Citizen is 100 percent locally owned, with all decisions made in Alamosa, not in a corporate office away from the San Luis Valley. Our investors are you, our paid digital subscribers and our community advertisers.

It’s been our mission to keep the San Luis Valley informed and engaged. Thanks for trusting us to do that.
