Alanreed, TX
Alanreed wildfire risk explained
Alanreed's 52 buildings earn a 99th-percentile wildfire-risk score nationally under USFS's model — in USFS's highest wildfire-risk band nationally. (Source: USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities methodology.)
Fire likelihood alone (USFS's burn-probability figure) ranks Alanreed at the 100th national percentile — 0 points above its risk-to-structures score, a gap driven by how much is actually built there.
Where Alanreed's buildings actually sit
Of Alanreed's 52 counted buildings, 67.3% 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.
How Alanreed compares
Alanreed's risk sits at a similar level relative to Texas (100th percentile statewide) as it does nationally (99th) — this place isn't unusual for its own state either way. Among the 31,521 US communities USFS scores, Alanreed ranks 264 for wildfire risk (1 is highest) and 30,890 by building count (1 is largest). Within Texas alone, it ranks 8 of 1,795 places by risk. See the full county-by-county picture for Texas on its state page.
What this risk score means for insurance
Alanreed's very high rating (99th 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.
What would actually reduce this score
With 67.3% of Alanreed 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.
More on how this number was built
Alanreed's 99th-percentile score and its burn-probability figure both come from the same USFS workbook, documented in the methodology guide. For more on what direct exposure implies beyond Alanreed, see the exposure-zones guide.
