About Alamogordo Times

Alamogordo sits between the Sacramento Mountains and the white gypsum dunes, with desert light that makes both hard to miss. Pistachio groves and a long connection to space exploration are part of the place, too. We started Alamogordo Times because that combination of landscape, work and history makes the stories of this city unmistakably its own.

We are part of Times Media Service, a network of local news sites. Here, we keep our attention on Alamogordo: what is changing, what people are making of it and what remains familiar when the mountains come into view. We want our reporting to help you understand this place as you live in it, whether you have known its sandy roads for years or are still learning your way around.
