What are some of the sources you use to get local news? I like https://arizonadailyindependent.com/ and try to keep an eye on https://www.eastvalleytribune.com/ and https://www.azfamily.com/. Twitter, surprisingly, can be helpful for more realtime events. Where do you look for local news?
Although it isn't really a news source. I listen to local talk radio to hear about different things happening around the state. 550am, 960am, 1100am. I try and scan through them to pick up anything happening locally.
