Retrieved October 1, 2026. Fallon is the Churchill County seat, in the irrigated Lahontan Valley. At about 3,965 feet it is the lowest town in our service area. It also has the lowest wildfire rating of any community we serve, so tree work here is about age, structure and water, not fire. ## Who owns Fallon's trees? About 9,500 people live inside the city, and the wider 89406 ZIP code, which takes in the farms and ranchettes around it, holds about 25,700. In the city, about half of homes, 51%, are owner-occupied, the lowest share of any town we serve east of Carson City (ACS 2020-2024). In the ZIP as a whole it is about 70%. That split matters. In town, many trees stand on rental property, and a landlord or manager is the one deciding about them. Our pages for [property managers](https://battleborntreeservice.com/who-we-serve/hoas-and-property-managers/) and [commercial properties](https://battleborntreeservice.com/who-we-serve/commercial-properties/) explain how we work with managers and owners of several properties. Outside town, trees line driveways, ditches and field edges on larger parcels. ## How old are the trees? About 40% of homes in the city were built before 1980 and about 16% before 1960, with a median year built of 1985. A good share of the canopy is therefore 40 to 70 years old: mature shade trees with long limbs over roofs and streets. [Crown pruning and dead wooding](https://battleborntreeservice.com/service-areas/fallon/tree-trimming/) keep those trees in service. When one has reached the end, [removal](https://battleborntreeservice.com/service-areas/fallon/tree-removal/) near a house is sectional work. ## Under 5 inches of rain, and trees everywhere The Fallon Experiment Station, about a mile from the city center at 3,965 feet, averages 4.77 inches of precipitation and 4.5 inches of snow a year (NOAA 1991-2020 normals). Winter nights average about 21 degrees and summer afternoons about 90. The USDA zone is 7a. Trees grow here because the valley is irrigated. A tree with its roots near a canal, a ditch or a flood-irrigated field can put on size quickly, and a tree that depended on a ditch that no longer runs can decline just as quickly. An arborist looks at water first when a Fallon tree starts dropping dead wood. See [drought stress and dieback](https://battleborntreeservice.com/tree-guide/drought-stress-and-dieback/). ## Wildfire: the lowest rating we cover The Forest Service rates Fallon's risk to homes at about the 31st percentile nationally, meaning higher than 31% of US communities, and near the bottom of the Nevada list. About 96% of buildings are in the minimal exposure category. The federal fire perimeter record shows no fire of 300 acres or more centered within about 10 miles of the city since 1980. Churchill County as a whole rates higher, above 74% of US counties, so rural parcels beyond the irrigated ground are a different case.
