ResumoThis study examines, from a spatial perspective, both direct consumer costs and those indirect costs relating to public welfare, as well as the resource costs necessary to realize an efficient emergency medical services (EMS) system. General systems and central‐place theories provide the background for the analysis. Based on a sample of forty‐eight contiguous Texas counties, a planning range was identified and primary EMS facility locations that exhibited a high level of stability were noted.
