Arcadia, OH
Arcadia, OH's wildfire risk, in USFS's own numbers
USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities model puts Arcadia at the 1st national percentile for risk to structures, among the lower wildfire-risk places nationally — a score built from 400 actual buildings. (Source: USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities methodology.)
Separately from the risk score above, Arcadia's burn probability — fire likelihood with no building count factored in — sits at the 1st percentile nationally.
Arcadia's building exposure, zone by zone
USFS classifies 91.8% of Arcadia's buildings as Minimal exposure, the largest of the three zones here by a wide margin over 8.3% Direct and 0% Indirect — a landscape-level risk rather than a building-by-building one.
How Arcadia compares
Arcadia scores 1st nationally and 5th within Ohio — close enough that its state context doesn't change the picture the national number already gives. Among the 31,521 US communities USFS scores, Arcadia ranks 31,249 for wildfire risk (1 is highest) and 19,217 by building count (1 is largest). Within Ohio alone, it ranks 1,201 of 1,264 places by risk. See the full county-by-county picture for Ohio on its state page.
Shopping for coverage in Arcadia
Arcadia's low wildfire rating (1st percentile) isn't the kind of score driving the carrier pullback making news in the highest-risk Western markets — but a standard homeowners quote is still worth comparing on its own terms.
Hardening a home in Arcadia
With 91.8% of buildings rated Minimal exposure, Arcadia gets less benefit from structure hardening than a Direct- or Indirect-dominant place would — the home-hardening guide explains why the zone matters.
