usa fire departments - east coast vs west coast

premise - on the west coast - pumper and aerials in the same fire
station have the same company number as the fire station number

on the east coast - fire stations have pumper and ladders with
different numbers in the same fire house

to be more exact - we are talking east of the mississippi river and
west of the mississippi river

east coast - different numbers - NYC + Chicago + Boston + Philadelphia
+ Washington DC + Memphis TN + New Orleans

west - same numbers - LAFD + San Francisco + Portland OR + Houston +
San Antonio + Austin + Phoenix + Omaha + Denver + Albuquerque +
Amarillo TX

exceptions - Miami + Atlanta + Seattle + Cleveland + Columbus OH +
Kansas City MO

basically - looks like we are mostly correct
