Chart - 2022 FDNY Runs by type

I find these numbers fascinating . . . from my never on the job point of view. In 2022, "Beyond the Fires" calls totaled 303, 902, but only 120 made it onto this site. Yeah, I know . . . there weren't anything like 88,988 fires posted here, either (I'm not going to count them :rolleyes:). So there must have been many, many "nothing" calls of both types (burning stripped car, cat up a tree, that sort of thing). I'm sure that those of you who are on the job or spent careers there are not even remotely surprised by these numbers . . . but I was. One question: would 10-92's be included in those 300,000+ incidents?

Absolutely. All runs of all types are rightfully taken credit for.
 
The official 2022 FDNY statistics released earlier this year for the five basic incident response categories:

Structural Fires 23,677 3.64%

Non-Structural Fires 14,192 2.18%

Non-Fire Emergencies 235,736 36.26%

Medical Emergencies 355,623 54.70%
