Lake Hughes County Fire Station 78 Is Open Around the Clock on Elizabeth Lake Road

LAKE HUGHES, Los Angeles County — The county’s official directory lists Fire Station 78 at 17021 W. Elizabeth Lake Road, with continuous operations.

Los Angeles County Fire Department offers fire suppression, emergency medical and rescue services through its network of stations. Station 78 is identified as open 24 hours a day, seven days a week. That listing should not be interpreted as a promise of any specific response time or permanent assignment of a particular vehicle.

When to call

The station’s listed administrative phone number is 661-724-1311. In any active fire, serious medical emergency or immediate danger, call 911, not the administrative line.

Lake Hughes residents can also use Los Angeles County’s emergency alert system and the Fire Department’s Lancaster-area fire prevention resources to review brush clearance, evacuation planning and access needs. Households in rural communities should keep an updated evacuation plan and identify alternate ways to receive warnings if mobile data service is interrupted.
