Austintown, OH
Austintown, OH's wildfire risk, in USFS's own numbers
Austintown's 13,717 buildings earn a 30th-percentile wildfire-risk score nationally under USFS's model — close to the middle of USFS's national wildfire-risk range. (Source: USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities methodology.)
Fire likelihood alone (USFS's burn-probability figure) ranks Austintown at the 31st national percentile — 1 points above its risk-to-structures score, a gap driven by how much is actually built there.
Austintown's building exposure, zone by zone
USFS classifies 84.5% of Austintown's buildings as Minimal exposure, the largest of the three zones here by a wide margin over 15.5% Direct and 0% Indirect — a landscape-level risk rather than a building-by-building one. At 13,717 buildings, this is a substantial built environment, so the shares below describe a real population of structures, not a handful of edge cases.

Hardening a home in Austintown
With 84.5% of buildings rated Minimal exposure, Austintown gets less benefit from structure hardening than a Direct- or Indirect-dominant place would — the home-hardening guide explains why the zone matters.
