Future Fire Station Map - areas within City of Austin (full purpose) which are in need of a fire station.

Analysis takes into account: population, building sq footage, development, response times, incident volume, homes at risk for wildfire and flooding, and ISO ratings.

Areas in BLUE are immediate/urgent needs. These areas have significant development, increased population, and
response times which are substantially below AFD's goal of
8 mins (call receipt to on-scene, 90%).

Areas in GOLD are defined as 'horizon areas'. These area have development, increased population, and response
times which are below AFD's goal of 8 mins (call receipt to
on-scene, 90%). If additional development or population occur,
area's ranking could increase.

Analysis performed by Austin Fire Department and utilized 2017 data. Map finalized January 2018.

This data set shows the number and percentage of emergency responses that meet the established time standards for that type of response.
