The Sacramento Metropolitan Fire District provides services through 42
stations and 750 uniformed and support personnel to nearly 600,000
people in a 417 square mile area. Metro Fire represents 16
predecessor fire agencies. Some of these fire agencies were founded
in the early twenties to provide fire protection in remote parts of
the County.
The varied demographics of the District provide opportunity for
its personnel
to respond to emergencies in rural, suburban and urban settings. The
wide diversity of emergency incidents require firefighters to be
proficient in wildland fire fighting, structural fire fighting,
crash fire rescue, technical rescue, swift water rescue, hazardous
material mitigation, and paramedic medical services.
The Sacramento Metropolitan Fire District "METRO FIRE" continues
to provide the best quality fire protection, fire prevention, fire
safety education, emergency medical aid, and other emergency
response services.
