About Peninsula Buzz
We are an independent newspaper that covers Pacifica, Daly City, South San Francisco and San Bruno. Our mission is to become your source for what’s happening in the community by providing fair, informative journalism. We believe local journalism works best when it’s rooted in the people it serves, and we hope to become a place where residents can stay informed and engage with what’s happening around them. Because Peninsula Buzz is community-driven, we welcome your feedback, participation and support as we grow.
