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.

Proudly serving Northampton Township since 1914.
Dryer lint traps can be easily forgotten, and when not cleaned properly and often creat a dangerous fire risk. Clean your lint traps frequently and make sure ALL your home appliances are properly maintained.
Yesterday, we had a farewell party for our good friend Jim Keller who is moving out of the township. Jim has been a frequent visitor to the fire station for many years, always bringing gifts and snacks. Best of luck Jim. We will miss you.
