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.
