The Pearland Fire Department is an all-hazards department responsible for fire suppression, emergency medical response, rescue, fire investigation, and inspections within its jurisdiction. The goal of the department is to provide for the safety and health of citizens within the City of Pearland and its Extra Territorial Jurisdiction (ETJ).
The department provides 24-hour service to the citizens of Pearland and responds to approximately 14,000 calls for service per year, serving an area of over 75 square miles with a population of more than 140,000.
Pearland is ranked as the 2nd fastest growing city in Texas and the Department is well suited to adapt to the ever-changing challenges this speed presents. Since 2007, PFD has evolved from a volunteer department to a 100% career department, staffing six stations 24/7/365.
