Info about FDs from 2009

Ratings

Rating classifications range from class 10 (the worst rating) to a rating of class 1 (the best). A structure beyond 6 road miles from the closest fire station of their district gets a 10 rating and is considered unprotected.

Over 1,000 of the 1,500 plus fire districts in North Carolina are rural. According to OSFM, in 2009 a little over 400 districts had a class 9 rating, around 200 had a class 7, over 450 had a class 6 and just over 300 had a class 5. All other rating classes were less than 100.
