2021 statistics for Sandy City

117 + 110= 227 emergency response people divided by 96,000 people = 1 response person for every 422 people in Sandy

…plus Costco, the soccer stadium, the mall, and other shopping centers within Sandy. In a disaster, priority will be given to places with higher density of people. 

Convenience is the first thing lost in an emergency. Prepare now to in order to be capable when things are not convenient.

The more we can help each other, the better off we’ll be.
