Yonkers Rising - (914) 965-4000

Welcome to Yonkers Rising, Yonkers' only strictly local news source.

Yonkers Rising, formerly the Home News & Times, is one of nine weekly newspapers in Westchester County that make up Rising Media Group, LLC, established in 2007. The Home News & Times dates back to the 1950’s, when two Yonkers newspapers, the Yonkers Home News and the Yonkers Times, were purchased and merged.

Yonkers Rising is the official weekly newspaper of the City of Yonkers, and in addition to publishing the city’s legal notices and tax liens, we take great pride and responsibility in our designation as official newspaper. We have found that in a city as large and diverse as Yonkers, there are many, many positive stories that are not reported in other media. It is our goal to be the hyperlocal news source for the City of Yonkers, with a focus on the positive goings-on in and around the city.
