Why they start

Out of 2,509 declared fires whose cause is recorded, that is 53 % of those in the department.

Unintentional (private individual) 1,019 41 %
Arson 772 31 %
Unintentional (works) 308 12 %
Accidental 233 9 %
Natural 177 7 %

BDIFF source. An investigation succeeds more often when a fire is large or suspicious: arson is probably over-represented here.
