Adamsville, OH's wildfire risk, in USFS's own numbers

Separately from the risk score above, Adamsville's burn probability — fire likelihood with no building count factored in — sits at the 41st percentile nationally.
Adamsville's building exposure, zone by zone
Indirect exposure is dominant in Adamsville (89.6% of 77 buildings): far enough from burnable vegetation to avoid flame contact, close enough for wind-blown embers. Only 10.4% sit in the Direct zone.
How Adamsville compares
Within Ohio, Adamsville ranks higher (86th percentile) than it does nationally (39th) — one of the more fire-exposed places in a state that, overall, scores lower than that.

What this risk score means for insurance
At the 39th national percentile, Adamsville rates moderate for wildfire risk — well short of the threshold where insurers have been withdrawing coverage, though comparing a quote costs nothing either way.
Lowering exposure, not just insuring around it
Adamsville's 89.6% Indirect-exposure share points at embers, not flame contact, as the main pathway — ember-resistant vents and non-combustible roofing rank ahead of defensible space here. Detail in the home-hardening guide.
