South Elgin & Countryside FPD
Picture





The District's mission is to minimize
the impact of life safety or property threats
resulting from fire, emergency medical,
​or other hazardous conditions.

These perils may include structure fires,
vehicle accidents, hazardous conditions,
industrial accidents, or specialized rescues.    
                 

Our goal is to accomplish this mission
through progressive personnel training,
public education, comprehensive code enforcement, and utilizing our personnel,
vehicles, and equipment at
​a constant state of readiness.



South Elgin Fire District is located in Kane and parts of DuPage Counties, approximately 44 miles northwest of downtown Chicago.
Our District encompasses 24 square miles and serves an estimated population of 26,000. The District provides service to the residents of South Elgin and also parts of Elgin, Bartlett, Pingree Grove, Campton Hills, and unincorporated St. Charles. We currently operate out of two stations; Station 21, along with the administrative offices, are located at 1090 W. Spring Street, and Station 22 and the Fire Prevention Bureau Office are located at 2055 McDonald Road, both in South Elgin.  The District is very excited to have added a third Station 23, located at 498-A South Elgin Boulevard on the east side of the District! Watch our progress of the station(s) construction here on our website and on our Facebook page!
