The Porter Fire Dept. was established in 1962 and has since been proudly serving the residents of Eastern Montgomery County, Texas. In 1998 to keep up with the ever-increasing call volume of the area, The Montgomery County Emergency Services District # 6 was formed, by and for the people of the Porter community. MCESD # 6 is governed by Montgomery County Commissioners Court and is responsible for providing both fire suppression and EMS – first responder services to the community. MCESD # 6 receives its funding at the rate of .10 cents for every 100.00 dollars of property value as regulated by the Texas Constitution, and a half-cent sales tax on applicable sales transactions in the district.

The fire district is comprised of 52 square miles and is served by 3 fire stations, and 15 apparatus. The combination fire department includes both a paid staff & volunteer members.
