Aubrey, TX
Aubrey, TX's wildfire risk, in USFS's own numbers
Out of every US place USFS scores, Aubrey lands at the 80th percentile for wildfire risk to structures — well above the national norm for wildfire risk — a figure built from its 2,865 buildings, not the land around them. (Source: USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities methodology.)
Separately from the risk score above, Aubrey's burn probability — fire likelihood with no building count factored in — sits at the 80th percentile nationally.
What "at risk" means for the buildings here
2,865 buildings are counted in Aubrey, and 58.4% of them are Indirect exposure — ember-driven risk rather than the 41.6% in Direct exposure or the 0% rated Minimal.
Where Aubrey ranks
Aubrey ranks lower within Texas (60th percentile statewide) than its 80th national percentile suggests alone — a calmer spot in a state where wildfire risk generally runs high. Among the 31,521 US communities USFS scores, Aubrey ranks 6,443 for wildfire risk (1 is highest) and 5,638 by building count (1 is largest). Within Texas alone, it ranks 714 of 1,795 places by risk. See the full county-by-county picture for Texas on its state page.
Shopping for coverage in Aubrey
At the 80th percentile nationally, Aubrey carries the high rating that has pushed some carriers to limit new business in similarly-scored places elsewhere in the country. Worth comparing quotes rather than assuming last year's renewal terms still apply.
Lowering exposure, not just insuring around it
With ember exposure the dominant pattern in Aubrey (58.4% Indirect), vent screens and roofing material tend to matter more than lot clearing alone. The home-hardening guide covers both.
