Bosque Farms, NM
Bosque Farms, NM's wildfire risk, in USFS's own numbers
Out of every US place USFS scores, Bosque Farms lands at the 67th percentile for wildfire risk to structures — well above the national norm for wildfire risk — a figure built from its 2,974 buildings, not the land around them. (Source: USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities methodology.)
Fire likelihood alone (USFS's burn-probability figure) ranks Bosque Farms at the 66th national percentile — 1 points below its risk-to-structures score, a gap driven by how much is actually built there.
Where Bosque Farms's buildings actually sit
Of Bosque Farms's 2,974 counted buildings, 82.1% 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.
Bosque Farms against the rest of the country
Inside New Mexico, Bosque Farms sits at just the 37th percentile even though it scores 67th nationally — the state's overall wildfire exposure is high enough to make this a relatively quiet corner of it. Among the 31,521 US communities USFS scores, Bosque Farms ranks 10,471 for wildfire risk (1 is highest) and 5,478 by building count (1 is largest). Within New Mexico alone, it ranks 310 of 495 places by risk. See the full county-by-county picture for New Mexico on its state page.
What this risk score means for insurance
At the 67th percentile nationally, Bosque Farms carries the high rating that has pushed some carriers to limit new business in similarly-scored places elsewhere in the country. Worth comparing quotes rather than assuming last year's renewal terms still apply.
Lowering exposure, not just insuring around it
Because Direct exposure dominates in Bosque Farms (82.1%), the highest-leverage fix is defensible space, not roofing or vents alone — covered in the home-hardening guide.
Where Bosque Farms's figures come from
Bosque Farms's 67th-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 Bosque Farms's dominant direct exposure actually means, with real examples from across the dataset.
