history
Long before the housing development and the shopping centers, Northampton Township was a community of farmers, with the village of Richboro as its hub. The potential for property loss or death from fire was low. Even so, a group of concerned residents gathered in 1914 to charter a fire company to serve the township. They called it the Richboro Fire Company No. 1. One hundred years later, the Company has grown into the Northampton Township Volunteer Fire Company that serves a population of over 40,000 people. Today, the company responds to 1000 Fire, Rescue and EMS calls a year.
