About Us

For more than 60 years, the Citizen Tribune has been the trusted voice of the Lakeway Area, delivering reliable local news and information that connects our communities and strengthens civic engagement.

Our mission is simple: to inform, engage, and serve the people of the Lakeway region through accurate, timely, and meaningful local journalism. We are committed to covering the issues that matter most to our readers—from local government decisions and school board actions to community events, economic development, public safety, and the people and organizations that make our region unique.

As a locally focused news organization, we believe strong communities depend on informed citizens. That is why we dedicate our resources to reporting on the stories that directly impact the lives of those who live, work, and raise their families in the Lakeway Area.

Through our print publications, digital platforms, newsletters, and social media channels, we strive to be the most trusted source for local news, information, and community connection. Whether celebrating local achievements, holding public institutions accountable, or keeping residents informed during times of change, the Citizen Tribune remains committed to serving as the region’s hometown news leader.

Our commitment today is the same as it was more than six decades ago: delivering trusted local journalism that informs our communities, preserves our local history, and helps shape the future of the Lakeway Area.
