Our Role in the Community
Collin County has long been underserved by digital news. Residents increasingly turn to social media for local information — often finding rumors instead of reporting. We started Collin County Record to fill that gap: a free, daily, digital-first source that treats local government meetings, school board votes, and Friday night football with equal seriousness.
We believe an informed community makes better decisions. Whether you're checking road closures, following school board proposals, or tracking downtown development, we aim to be the first place you check each morning.
We're always looking for contributors across North Texas — freelance writers, photographers, and anyone with a tip worth investigating. Reach out at tips@collincountyrecord.com.
