The City of Austin and Travis County are separate governments: the city runs its police, fire, public health, water and power departments, and the county runs the sheriff, the district attorney and the courts. The transit authority and the school districts each have their own boards. We always say which one a story is about.
How we work
We credit our sources and stick to what they support. We use AI tools to help with some of our work, such as drafting stories from official announcements. Our editors oversee and review our AI-assisted work, and the same standards and corrections policy apply to everything we publish. Our ethics and standards explain more.
When we get something wrong, we fix it and say so. Read our corrections policy or see every correction we have made.
Who we are
ATXFeed launched in 2026 and is published by Community Feed Media. It is an independent news site. We are not part of the City of Austin, Travis County or any agency we cover; we report on them for Austin residents.
