What This Data Tells You About HUDSON FIRE PROTECTION DISTRICT

The department reports 28 total personnel, 3 stations, no truck inventory reported.

Department type matters because career, volunteer, and combination organizations carry very different response-time profiles and funding sources.
Benchmarking against the state gives this profile context. Colorado has 575 registered fire departments and 14,812 total personnel, averaging roughly 26 staff per department. HUDSON FIRE PROTECTION DISTRICT runs 8% above that state average, signalling a larger-than-typical crew likely tied to denser population or higher call volume.

No FEMA AFG or SAFER grant awards are recorded against this department's FDID in USAspending data, which is common for smaller or volunteer-heavy organizations that lean on state and local funding instead. Residents, insurers, and mutual-aid partners use these data points to judge whether coverage is adequate for the built environment, whether ISO ratings are defensible, and where future capital investment should flow. All figures on this page come from the Homeland Infrastructure Foundation-Level Data (HIFLD) public dataset, USFA published statistics, and USAspending.gov, and are presented without editing so the underlying federal record remains transparent and verifiable.
