The federal wildfire occurrence database lists 15 fires within 5 miles of Satans Kingdom between 2016 and 2020, burning about 10 acres in total. None started naturally. None was recorded as arson. Distance is straight-line from the map coordinates, so a fire counted here may appear on a neighbouring settlement's page as well.

The most recent of them, most recent first, with the day each was reported and the service that recorded it.

Settlements close enough to share some of these fires:

• East Northfield
• East Northfield Station
• Mount Hermon Station
• Northfield
• West Northfield
• Bernardston

Every fire recorded in Franklin County

Museums hold 689 specimens collected within 10 miles of Satans Kingdom between 1847 and 1975: 313 Animalia, 150 Plantae, 115 Fungi, 111 Unrecorded. 12 distinct Species records are shown. Collected by A S Pease, A. J. Grout, A. M. Ottley and others. Each is a physical object with a catalogue number, and each entry opens the museum's record. This is what was collected and kept, not a survey of what lives here - nothing can be concluded from a species being absent.

Every working recorded in Franklin County

The eight closest, with where each one stands in the county. Distances are straight-line, computed from the Geographic Names Information System coordinates.

Matched on this settlement's Geographic Names Information System number rather than its name, so it cannot be a different place of the same name in another state.

This settlement is recorded in the Geographic Names Information System as feature 609340. The sheet list is computed by point-in-boundary test against the United States Geological Survey's historical topographic inventory.
