Arkansas recorded a record 50 fire-related deaths in 2025, the highest since 2016, with officials citing lack of working smoke detectors as a major factor.

Arkansas’s fire fatality rate exceeds the national average.
Officials urge installing detectors on every level, testing monthly, replacing batteries yearly, and updating units every decade.
They also recommend creating and practicing a fire escape plan with two exits per room, a safe meeting spot, and accommodations for people with disabilities.
Residents are reminded to never re-enter a burning building and to call 911 after escaping.
