What this is

This dataset tracks numbered grid squares (about 1 mile wide) used by Oklahoma City’s fire department to organize the city into sections.

Why it matters to you

Emergency responders use these grid numbers to coordinate calls and track incident locations. While most residents won’t need this daily, knowing your grid helps if you’re reporting a fire or major emergency—dispatchers may ask for it to pinpoint your area faster. Neighborhood groups or businesses planning safety drills might also use these grids to align with city response protocols.

How to read this data

  • Fire Index Grid: The number assigned to your ~1-square-mile section of the city (e.g., “Grid 42”).
  • Shape/Area: Technical geographic details (like boundary lines and size) used for mapping systems.

Where this leaves you

This data doesn’t let you look up your grid by typing in an address here—you’d need a separate city map or tool to match your location to a grid number.
