Auburn, NY: Police, Fire & EMS Scanner Activity

CNY Signal logged 90 radio calls in Auburn over the last 30 days, an average of 3 a day, and 99 calls over the last 90 days. That is 42nd out of the 69 Central New York municipalities we currently cover.

Ambulance work dominates the Auburn feed. EMS accounts for 58.9 percent of the last 30 days, where the regional figure is 48.2 percent. The 10.7 point gap above the Central New York average is one of the things that separates Auburn from its neighbors. The rest of the mix runs Fire 10 percent, Law enforcement 1.1 percent and General radio traffic 30 percent.

Activity in Auburn peaks across the middle of the day, at the 3 p.m. hour, which takes 10.1 percent of the last 90 days. Thursday is the busiest day of the week at 20.2 percent. Things are thinnest in the 12 a.m. hour. Weekends account for only 19.2 percent of the Auburn total against the 28.6 percent an even week would give, making this a weekday heavy town.

One call type carries Auburn more than the rest: medical call, 54 times in 90 days, or 80.6 percent of everything we could classify there. Behind it come fire response (8), welfare check (2), harassment (1) and rescue response (1).

Counted from the CNY Signal scanner archive, not an agency call log. Volume tracks how much of the time our receivers were up as well as real activity, so we publish shares, peaks and rankings for Auburn rather than period over period trends.
