<abstract displayLabel="Summary">According to U.S. Fire Loss for 2010, by Michael J. Karter, Jr. of NFPA, firefighters in the United States in 2010 responded to an estimated 1,331,500 fires, 384,000 of which were in residential structures, 98,000 of which were in nonresidential structures, and 849,500 of which were outside of structures. These fires accounted for an estimated 3,120 deaths, 2,665 of which occurred in residential structures, 90 in non-residential structures, and 365 in fires outside of structures. Twenty-nine of the fires were categorized as catastrophic multiple-death fires, defined here as fires or explosions in homes or apartments that result in five or more fire-related deaths, or as fires or explosions in all other structures, as well as outside of structures such as wildfires and vehicle fires, that claim three or more lives</abstract>
