Avenue B and C, AZ
How exposed is Avenue B and C to wildfire?
USFS scores Avenue B and C at the 31st national percentile for wildfire risk to structures (close to the middle of USFS's national wildfire-risk range), a figure built from 1,518 real buildings rather than raw vegetation cover. (Source: USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities methodology.)
Separately from the risk score above, Avenue B and C's burn probability — fire likelihood with no building count factored in — sits at the 27th percentile nationally.
Avenue B and C's building exposure, zone by zone
Only 7.5% of Avenue B and C's 1,518 buildings carry Direct exposure and 0% carry Indirect; the remaining 92.5% are Minimal, which shifts the risk driving this page's score toward the surrounding landscape rather than any one structure.
How Avenue B and C compares
Inside Arizona, Avenue B and C sits at just the 8th percentile even though it scores 31st nationally — the state's overall wildfire exposure is high enough to make this a relatively quiet corner of it.

Within Arizona alone, it ranks 404 of 441 places by risk. See the full county-by-county picture for Arizona on its state page.
Shopping for coverage in Avenue B and C
Avenue B and C's moderate wildfire rating (31st 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 Avenue B and C
With 92.5% of buildings rated Minimal exposure, Avenue B and C gets less benefit from structure hardening than a Direct- or Indirect-dominant place would — the home-hardening guide explains why the zone matters.
More on how this number was built
Avenue B and C's 31st-percentile score and its burn-probability figure both come from the same USFS workbook, documented in the methodology guide. For more on what minimal exposure implies beyond Avenue B and C, see the exposure-zones guide.
