In 2020, an astonishing 52,113 fires burned close to 9 million acres (about 36,400 square kilometers) across the nation, and claimed 53 lives and 6,500 structures, according to the latest data released by the National Interagency Fire Center (NIFC), an Idaho-based federal agency in charge of co-ordination of wildland firefighting resources in the United States. It was a record-setting year for devastation in numerable categories, and overall acreage almost doubled the land burned in 2019.
