National run survey; Part 4.(FIRE SERVICE STATISTICS)(Survey)
For the 27th year, the career fire service takes to the pages of Firehouse Magazine to share and compare statistics about company and department activity levels, funding, staffing and pay. A total of 271 fire departments took part in this year's survey, representing 45 states, the District of Columbia and 7 Canadian provinces. The departments represented in this latest survey protect 78,297,462 people, and they have budgets totaling more than $12 billion (budgets are listed in millions of dollars). They provide this service with 3,860 engine companies, 1,380 ladder companies, 1,559 ambulances and numerous other specialized units. They responded to 1,829,199 fire calls, 7,236,854 EMS calls and 10,412,376 total calls last year.
