General Information

Baldwin County is the largest county in Alabama and is roughly the size of Rhode Island. It has a diverse geography extending from the beach on the Gulf of Mexico to coastal plain and farmland to timber country in the north. Much of the area is rural - serviced by volunteer fire departments, the Baldwin County Sheriff's Office, and small police departments. Notable exceptions are the popular vacation destinations of Gulf Shores, Orange Beach, and Foley whose communities support well-funded, staffed, and equipped police and fire departments. The Eastern Shore cities of Spanish Fort, Daphne, and Fairhope also support robust police and fire departments. And, the county seat of Bay Minette has full-time police and fire departments.

Public Safety departments in Baldwin County operate on one or more of the following three radio systems:

  • Alabama Interoperable Radio System (AIRS)
  • Bay Minette, Daphne, Foley, Robertsdale (NXDN)
  • Baldwin County (VHF radios)

All fire departments in Baldwin County are dispatched from the 911 Center in Robertsdale regardless of their radio system and there is a great deal of multicasting so it is common to hear calls across all three systems. Depending on the department and the nature of the call, dispatching may be heard on one or more of the five geographic channels (North, East, South, West, or Central) or a single departmental talkgroup. The list below provides the fire department station identifiers.
