Boley, OK
Boley, OK's wildfire risk, in USFS's own numbers
Out of every US place USFS scores, Boley lands at the 95th percentile for wildfire risk to structures — in USFS's highest wildfire-risk band nationally — a figure built from its 271 buildings, not the land around them. (Source: USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities methodology.)
USFS's separate burn-probability score — fire likelihood alone, before counting what's built there — puts Boley at the 96th percentile, close to its 95th-percentile risk score.
Where Boley's buildings actually sit
Of Boley's 271 counted buildings, 69.7% 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.
How Boley compares
Boley's 95th national percentile looks worse in isolation than its 80th ranking inside Oklahoma does — this place is on the milder end for its own state, by 15 points. Among the 31,521 US communities USFS scores, Boley ranks 1,548 for wildfire risk (1 is highest) and 22,481 by building count (1 is largest). Within Oklahoma alone, it ranks 168 of 834 places by risk. See the full county-by-county picture for Oklahoma on its state page.
Boley and the insurance market
Boley's very high rating (95th percentile) puts it among the places where the national carrier-pullback trend is most relevant — not a guarantee of a coverage problem, but a reason to shop rather than assume.
Lowering exposure, not just insuring around it
Because Direct exposure dominates in Boley (69.7%), the highest-leverage fix is defensible space, not roofing or vents alone — covered in the home-hardening guide.
