Adrian, TX
Adrian wildfire risk explained
USFS scores Adrian at the 96th national percentile for wildfire risk to structures (in USFS's highest wildfire-risk band nationally), a figure built from 183 real buildings rather than raw vegetation cover. (Source: USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities methodology.)
Fire likelihood alone (USFS's burn-probability figure) ranks Adrian at the 96th national percentile — 0 points above its risk-to-structures score, a gap driven by how much is actually built there.
Where Adrian's buildings actually sit
Of Adrian's 183 counted buildings, 54.6% carry Direct exposure and only 0% carry Minimal — a lopsided split that puts defensible-space clearing ahead of vents or roofing as the intervention worth doing first.
Adrian against the rest of the country
Adrian's risk sits at a similar level relative to Texas (97th percentile statewide) as it does nationally (96th) — this place isn't unusual for its own state either way. Among the 31,521 US communities USFS scores, Adrian ranks 1,270 for wildfire risk (1 is highest) and 25,513 by building count (1 is largest). Within Texas alone, it ranks 62 of 1,795 places by risk. See the full county-by-county picture for Texas on its state page.
Shopping for coverage in Adrian
Adrian's very high rating (96th percentile) puts it among the places where the national carrier-pullback trend is most relevant — not a guarantee of a coverage problem, but a reason to shop rather than assume.
Lowering exposure, not just insuring around it
With 54.6% of Adrian in Direct exposure, defensible-space clearing and ember-resistant construction (vents, Class-A roofing) address the exposure this page's own numbers describe, not a generic checklist. See the home-hardening guide.
