Calls and Statistics
Yerington and Mason Valley have grown a bit in the past ten years or so.  In 1994 we had a total of 522 calls, in 2005 we had 1241 calls.  With all the building going on around us, and other places nearby becoming less desirable, we are bound to see a big jump in our population.  More fire and ambulance calls will go hand in hand with that increase.  Here is a break-down of our calls and some other information.
