Where Allenport (Huntingdon)'s buildings actually sit
Most of Allenport (Huntingdon)'s buildings (71.3%) sit in the Indirect zone, where wind-blown embers rather than flame front are the mechanism USFS is scoring — ember-resistant vents and non-combustible roofing are the interventions this pattern favors, more than defensible space alone.
