Bogart, GA
How exposed is Bogart to wildfire?
Out of every US place USFS scores, Bogart lands at the 59th percentile for wildfire risk to structures — modestly above the national average for wildfire risk — a figure built from its 671 buildings, not the land around them. (Source: USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities methodology.)
Separately from the risk score above, Bogart's burn probability — fire likelihood with no building count factored in — sits at the 63rd percentile nationally.
Bogart's building exposure, zone by zone
Of Bogart's 671 counted buildings, 84.4% carry Direct exposure and only 0% carry Minimal — a lopsided split that puts defensible-space clearing ahead of vents or roofing as the intervention worth doing first.
Bogart against the rest of the country
Bogart ranks lower within Georgia (17th percentile statewide) than its 59th national percentile suggests alone — a calmer spot in a state where wildfire risk generally runs high. Among the 31,521 US communities USFS scores, Bogart ranks 12,820 for wildfire risk (1 is highest) and 14,958 by building count (1 is largest). Within Georgia alone, it ranks 553 of 669 places by risk. See the full county-by-county picture for Georgia on its state page.
Shopping for coverage in Bogart
Bogart's elevated rating (59th percentile nationally) sits outside the range where wildfire risk alone reshapes an insurance market — still, a homeowner here loses nothing by comparing rates.
What would actually reduce this score
With 84.4% of Bogart in Direct exposure, defensible-space clearing and ember-resistant construction (vents, Class-A roofing) address the exposure this page's own numbers describe, not a generic checklist. See the home-hardening guide.
Where Bogart's figures come from
Bogart's 59th-percentile score and its burn-probability figure both come from the same USFS workbook, documented in the methodology guide. The exposure-zones guide covers what Bogart's dominant direct exposure actually means, with real examples from across the dataset.
