Profile: Sun City, the world’s first master-planned active retirement community, was a natural fit for the Sun Cities Independent. Readers have made the Independent the most-popular newspaper in community by submitting important news to fill our inside pages. As the "best read paper in the community," it is well-respected for its award winning local news coverage since 1960 and well-received with a weekly home delivery of 24,000 in Sun City and Youngtown. The Sun City West Independent goes to 15,000 homes in an adjacent sister community.

Our Purpose… The Sun Cities Independent is owned by a unique trust that enables this newspaper to pursue a mission of journalistic service to the citizens of the community. Since no dividends are paid, the company is able to thrive on profit margins below industry standards. All after-tax surpluses are reinvested in Independent’s mission of journalistic service, commitment to the ideals of the First Amendment of the U.S. Constitution, and support of the community’s deliberation of public issues.
