Boynton wildfire risk explained

Boynton's building exposure, zone by zone

How Boynton compares
Inside Oklahoma, Boynton sits at just the 32nd percentile even though it scores 85th 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, Boynton ranks 4,673 for wildfire risk (1 is highest) and 23,568 by building count (1 is largest). Within Oklahoma alone, it ranks 566 of 834 places by risk. See the full county-by-county picture for Oklahoma on its state page.
What this risk score means for insurance
Boynton's very high rating (85th 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.
