Your Community. Your Stories.
Independent, factual, and proud to serve the residents of Cerritos, CA since day one.
Our Mission
Cerritos News exists to keep every resident of Cerritos — from the student at ABC Unified to the business owner on Artesia Boulevard — genuinely informed about what matters in their community.
We believe local journalism is the lifeblood of a healthy community. When neighbors know what is happening at City Hall, on the school board, in local businesses, and at community events, they make better decisions, engage more deeply, and build a stronger, more connected Cerritos.
We are a small but dedicated team committed to factual, fair, and fun journalism that welcomes all opinions and respects independent thought. We are not affiliated with any political party, ideology, or corporate interest. Our only allegiance is to the truth and to you — our readers.
