Business Description
Since 1890 "Brazoria County's Oldest Newspaper"
Serving Alvin, Manvel, Liverpool, Rosharon, Iowa Colony, Santa Fe, and Danbury Areas.
Now in its 123rd year, a newspaper originally called The Alvin News was established on August 8, 1890. Brazoria County's oldest paper, the News was published as a weekly until 1961 when it became a semi-weekly.
In 1978, the now daily paper was a single sheet, printed on both sides. The current name, The Alvin Sun was adopted in 1890, and was delivered by paperboys throughout the community on a weekly basis. The purchase of the Alvin Advertiser in 1979 increased the ability of the paper to cover a bigger area three times a week.
The paper has covered major catastrophes: the killing Hurricane of 1900, a major freeze in 1911, a fire in 1997 that totally destroyed the building in the 1980s, yet it lives on.
In 2008, when Hurricane Ike struck the Texas Gulf Coast area, the paper was able to continue to cover news almost immediately after the storm struck.
We continue to provide total market advertising coverage reaching over 18,000 homes. Today, The Alvin Sun, Sun-Advertiser and Alvin Advertiser provide news and advertising services to Alvin, Manvel and the surrounding areas.
