Boulevard Park, WA
How exposed is Boulevard Park to wildfire?
USFS scores Boulevard Park at the 6th national percentile for wildfire risk to structures (among the lower wildfire-risk places nationally), a figure built from 1,157 real buildings rather than raw vegetation cover. (Source: USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities methodology.)
USFS's separate burn-probability score — fire likelihood alone, before counting what's built there — puts Boulevard Park at the 6th percentile, close to its 6th-percentile risk score.
Where Boulevard Park's buildings actually sit
95.3% of Boulevard Park's 1,157 buildings sit in USFS's Minimal exposure zone, with only 4.7% rated Direct — risk here comes from regional burn probability more than proximity to burnable vegetation at the structure itself.
How Boulevard Park compares
Boulevard Park's risk sits at a similar level relative to Washington (3rd percentile statewide) as it does nationally (6th) — this place isn't unusual for its own state either way. Among the 31,521 US communities USFS scores, Boulevard Park ranks 29,707 for wildfire risk (1 is highest) and 10,906 by building count (1 is largest). Within Washington alone, it ranks 611 of 628 places by risk. See the full county-by-county picture for Washington on its state page.
Shopping for coverage in Boulevard Park
Boulevard Park's low wildfire rating (6th 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.
What would actually reduce this score
Boulevard Park's 95.3% Minimal-exposure share means structure-level hardening matters less here than it would elsewhere — still worth the low-cost basics, per the home-hardening guide.
More on how this number was built
Boulevard Park's 6th-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 Boulevard Park, see the exposure-zones guide.
