Interesting Statistics

There are currently 1,514 volunteer fire fighters in Chester County.

Five years ago, we had 1,591.

Ten years ago, we had 1,664.

Fifteen years ago, we had 1,831.

This shows a DECREASE of roughly 17% of our volunteer base over the last 15 years.

Studies done in the PA State Senate estimate that to replace ALL PA Volunteer Fire/Rescue/EMS would cost taxpayers ~$7,000,000,000 to $9,000,000,000!!
