As of our last ISO inspection in 2021, SOFD has been awarded a Public Protection Classification of 03/3X by the Insurance Service Office, Inc. Below is a message regarding our new classification; 

​South Oldham Fire Department is classified as a split Class 03/3X – ISO rated fire department. ISO – Insurance Services Office, Inc. rates fire departments on many factors related top their ability to provide fire protection on a nationally recognized survey and scores are based on various factors.
 
The ISO Rating system is used by many of the largest insurance providers in the US to set both residential; and commercial insurance premiums for their customers. The best rating is Class 1 and ratings go up to a class 10 for fire departments that offer the least protection classification and water supply capabilities.
 
South Oldham has been rated a split Class 4/9 since the late 1980’s and kept the same rating after the survey in early 2002’s. Having a full time crew in the fire station 24 hours a day, 365 days a year has help with the new rating.
 
The Class 3 rating is the area in the district within 5 miles of a fire station and within 1000 feet of a fire hydrant. The Class 3X rating covers the district within 5 miles of a fire station, but not within 1000 feet of fire hydrant.
