> Only large cities (> 100k residents, I think) need to have paid firefighters.
Depends on the state.
Where I'm living now (Northrhine-Westphalia) we're far below 100k, but we have a professional fire brigade.
We also have the volunteer fire brigade.
And one chemical factory has their own fire brigade, which also helps out throughout the town whenever something special (i.e. chemical) is happening or everyone else is busy.
