As we approach Sept.11th.  let us not forget Keith Roma NYFP #2...and all the brothers and sisters..who gave all....god save the USA

It's up to each individual municipality.
 
But typically most don't have any official residency requirements.

SFD has 5 fully staffed firehouses in what had been the Stamford Fire District (basically from LI Sound north to Bulls Head and Greenwich to Darien West to East). These stations house U-4 (on duty Deputy i.e. Shift Commander) Engines 1,2,3,4 & 5,  Trucks 1 (TL), 2 & 3(Ladders)  and Rescue 1. Each unit is staffed with four. Additionally SFD has Engine 6 in Glenbrook, Engine 7 in Springdale and Engines 8 & 9 in Turn of River (1 in each TRFD station) also staffed by four.
 
As for the VFDs, the resources excluding personnel  are as follows
Glenbook  -2 Engines, 1 Ladder 1 support unit
Belltown - 2 Engines, 1 Tower Ladder, 1 medium duty Rescue
Springdale - 2 Engines, 1 Suppprt unit
TRFD - 2 Engines, 1 Ladder, 1 Rescue, 1 Tanker
Long Ridge - 2 Engines, 1 Pumper/Tanker, 1 light duty Rescue. 1 Tanker (2 career personnel on duty 24/7, FM on duty M-F 8-4)
 
As far as responses go, to the best of my recollection the City is dispatched to ALL calls citywide with an Engine (or other unit if no Engine is available) dispatched to life threatening medical calls and a full box assignment for fire calls (which I believe is 3E's, 1T &1R with a 4th E dispatched with traffic, upgraded to code 3 response as FAST if confirmed WF) 
 
For calls in the VFD districts that VFD will also be dispatched. VFD responses vary from nonexistant to 100% which is why SFD is dispatched to all calls. 
 
Hope this is what you were looking for
Merry Christmas

That's crazy. Talk about luck. Glad no one was hurt. 

Any structural damage to the station?

Luckily no injuries.  Tree entered above kitchen table causing fluorescent light fixture to swing across table.  The crew of Engine 4 went on an EMS call at 1604 and returned at 1645 and found the damage.  Crew were in the kitchen prior to the run.

Seth....I was in the store about 15 min.before.

During the 1970s, my brother and I were Volunteer Firefighters in Fairfield, Ct. It was a combination department of career and volunteer firefighters that got along very well together. Many of us as volunteers, were encouraged to become career firefighters and the fact is that many of us did just that. Some are retired now and rose through the ranks quickly.
 
 The Fairfield Fire Dept was ALWAYS very progressive in their thinking. EMT was encouraged when the term first came out and the Fairfield FD was one of the first in Connecticut to assume responding to medical emergencies. The use of air packs was another area in which the department emphasized to both it's career and volunteer firefighters, how important using them was long before todays everyday use.
 
 The Fairfield FD covers a large area which includes the very busy I-95, Merritt Parkway Rte 15, a large shoreline, many condos, large single family homes, office buildings and a busy commuter railroad.
 
 My brother and I are still very THANKFUL for all that the Fairfield FD taught us. We had fun and those career firefighters pushed us to do the right thing.
 
 I just hope the younger people of today get the same opportunity that so many of us had. The Fairfield FD gave us all a great start and NONE of us have forgotten that.
