Residential fire prevention has made homes safer by cutting fire cases by 10% and deaths by 25%, thanks to strong community education, smoke alarms, and emergency planning. People across neighborhoods learn how to escape fires and keep their families safe, but some areas with poor housing still face big risks. Firefighters work hard with new tools and training, yet dangers like nighttime fires linked to alcohol and attacks on crews remind us the fight isn’t over. Fire safety is a shared effort, needing everyone’s care and constant readiness to protect lives.
