Allegheny Independent Media is an independent, data-driven news outlet focused on local politics, public health, and civic affairs across the Allegheny region of Western Pennsylvania.
Since 2022, we have published original analysis and reporting that draws on publicly available data, government records, court documents, and original research — going deeper than the headlines to give communities the information they need to understand the forces shaping their lives.
Our coverage spans elections, COVID-19 data, environmental issues, economic trends, and local government accountability across Cambria County, Allegheny County, and the broader Western Pennsylvania region.
Our Mission
We believe that independent, non-partisan journalism is a public good — especially in communities underserved by large media organizations. Our work is free to read, and we rely on the support of our readers to keep it that way.
