About Us: Sun City Oro Valley
Our Story
Sun City Oro Valley was founded in 2017 with a vision to become the go-to news source for the vibrant community of Oro Valley, Arizona. It all started as a passion project by a group of local journalists and content creators who identified a growing need for an independent, community-focused media platform. The website’s name reflects its deep roots in the area, where the sun shines brightly over the lush cityscape.
Over the years, we’ve grown from a small team to a dedicated crew of professionals driven by a love for storytelling and a commitment to keeping our community informed. We’ve celebrated numerous milestones, including our first year anniversary in 2018, where we introduced our popular weekly podcast, “Oro Valley Insights.” By 2020, we had expanded our reach with a dedicated social media following, allowing us to engage directly with our readers and bring more voices into the conversation.
