The planned Academic Hill Firewise Community is in southeast Kensington.
In the Fall of 2025, we applied for Firewise Community recognition. We are already working to reduce wildfire risk on our properties, plan for evacuation, and prepare our defensible space so it's safe for first responders in the event of a wildfire.

This 15' x 50' slope was overgrown with vegetation, including a huge, hazardous juniper hedge. Flames would threaten both the home and the cars evacuating on Arlington Avenue. It's now been cleared and replanted with less fire-prone plants.
Household Activity Reports ensure Firewise Recognition is renewed annually. They also help shape Kensington's wildfire programs.
Participating households track and report their risk reduction activities online or via email. Contact your organizers for details.
Organizers compile neighborhood numbers and report them to Firewise USA each year. Residents' personal information is never shared.
