The Stanfield Fire Department was formed on Aug. 13, 1912, with very little equipment, and 100 years later, the department has six vehicles and a fully supplied station at 2800 W. Coe Ave.

Stanfield serves the city, about 52 miles outside the city limits and responds to mutual aid calls for other local departments for both fire and ambulance services.

Stanfield Fire Department staff includes one full-time chief, one part-time clerk and 13 volunteer firefighters.
