DIAL 911 FOR POLICE, FIRE, & MEDICAL EMERGENCIES
Help us find you!

  The 9-1-1 system is designed to display your house number and street address to the dispatcher who answers your call. Make sure that your telephone company has listed in their records the name of the town you actually live in... not your post office. So, after you call 9-1-1, how do the emergency services find you?

  • Is your house number posted on your house?
  • Can your house number be seen from the road? In darkness or bad weather?
  • Are any numbers covered by shrubs or trees? Do they stand out from the background?
  • If you live or work in a complex with multiple buildings: is each building clearly marked? Apartment number? Trailer? Lot number?
  • If your address is on your mailbox, can it be seen? Day or night? Is the mailbox in front of the correct house or apartment?
  • Are the street signs correct for your address?
  • Remember, an emergency vehicle may need to get to your house in a hurry!
  • Can you afford the extra time it might take to locate your house in an emergency?
