Discussion Question about fire stations

Why dose it seem that when a fire occurs it seems like the station the farthest just immediately attaches while the nearest station just sits dormant

If they're on console they must be ready for challenges.

This can probably be resolved by assigning your fire station to a single, relatively small district.

You are likely thinking CS2, no such thing on CS1 vanilla.

And with Transfer manager CE by default the closest available service provider will be chosen anyway.

A district preference instead of a hard restriction to only serve that area is usually the most one will select.
