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 Fire Department that serves a population of over 40,000 people. Today, the company responds to 1000 Fire, Rescue and EMS calls a year.
