What the official dataset records
The district totals combine fires, false alarms and special-service incidents. They describe demand attended by SFRS, not only fires and not the compliance of buildings.

Fires, false alarms and special services
The official category download provides the county-wide composition but not a district-by-category cross-tab. We therefore do not infer how many of each district’s incidents were fires.

Sort order follows the six-year total. Changes in raw numbers can reflect population, land use, roads, reporting and service demand.
