Huntington Beach Fire Department
Huntington Beach is a seaside city in Orange County in southern California covering
an area of over 30 square miles with a population of just under 200,000.
The Huntington Beach Fire Department founded in 1909, consists of 8 paramedic
engine companies, 2 truck companies, and 4 ambulances operating out of 8 stations
throughout the city.  Over the years, Huntington Beach purchased 11 pieces of
apparatus from Crown, 7 of which are shown below.
This 1971 photo by Chris Arnold shows Huntington Beach's Ocean View Fire Station on Beach Boulevard with F1042 and F1496
