CenTex Press is an independent, digital-first community newsroom for Central Texas.
Our goal is straightforward: report what is happening locally, make public information easier to understand, put source documents close to the reporting, and create room for different community voices without confusing opinion with news.
What you will find here
CenTex Press will cover local government, schools, business, community events, investigations and issues that affect Central Texas residents.
When documents matter to a story, The Receipts will make those records easier to find. When government language gets complicated, our explainers will put it into plain English.
Community contributors will also have a place here. Reporting, analysis and opinion will be clearly labeled, and factual claims should be supported by reliable sources.
This newsroom is being built in public. More reporting and newsroom tools are coming as the site grows.
