How exposed is Beverly Hills to wildfire?

Elevated
51stpercentile nationally

USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities model puts Beverly Hills at the 51st national percentile for risk to structures, modestly above the national average for wildfire risk — a score built from 858 actual buildings. (Source: USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities methodology.)

Separately from the risk score above, Beverly Hills's burn probability — fire likelihood with no building count factored in — sits at the 52nd percentile nationally.

Beverly Hills against the rest of the country

Inside Texas, Beverly Hills sits at just the 7th percentile even though it scores 51st nationally — the state's overall wildfire exposure is high enough to make this a relatively quiet corner of it.

Within Texas alone, it ranks 1,674 of 1,795 places by risk. See the full county-by-county picture for Texas on its state page.

Shopping for coverage in Beverly Hills

At the 51st national percentile, Beverly Hills rates elevated for wildfire risk — well short of the threshold where insurers have been withdrawing coverage, though comparing a quote costs nothing either way.

What would actually reduce this score

With 83.7% of buildings rated Minimal exposure, Beverly Hills gets less benefit from structure hardening than a Direct- or Indirect-dominant place would — the home-hardening guide explains why the zone matters.
