My landlord, the fire safety hero

On my way home from NFPA's offices yesterday, I nearly dropped my smart phone while reading an email from my landlord, titled "fire safety":

Almost every day I see a house fire on the news due to improper use of extension cords and/or space heaters. Most of these homes did not have working smoke & fire detectors.

Please be careful with space heaters and fireplaces, and do not overload electrical circuits. Also, check your smoke detectors to make sure they are working, if not, let me know.

Thanks and please be safe,
David

Can anyone out there help me find fire statistics for creosote fires broken down by state?
