Braman, OK
How exposed is Braman to wildfire?
Braman's 194 buildings earn a 36th-percentile wildfire-risk score nationally under USFS's model — close to the middle of USFS's national wildfire-risk range. (Source: USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities methodology.)
Separately from the risk score above, Braman's burn probability — fire likelihood with no building count factored in — sits at the 32nd percentile nationally.
Braman's building exposure, zone by zone
Only 6.7% of Braman's 194 buildings carry Direct exposure and 0% carry Indirect; the remaining 93.3% are Minimal, which shifts the risk driving this page's score toward the surrounding landscape rather than any one structure.
Where Braman ranks
Braman ranks lower within Oklahoma (2nd percentile statewide) than its 36th national percentile suggests alone — a calmer spot in a state where wildfire risk generally runs high. Among the 31,521 US communities USFS scores, Braman ranks 20,144 for wildfire risk (1 is highest) and 25,096 by building count (1 is largest). Within Oklahoma alone, it ranks 817 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
Braman's moderate rating (36th percentile nationally) sits outside the range where wildfire risk alone reshapes an insurance market — still, a homeowner here loses nothing by comparing rates.
Lowering exposure, not just insuring around it
Even with 93.3% of Braman outside USFS's Direct and Indirect zones, basic hardening — gutter maintenance, ember-resistant vents — is inexpensive relative to the regional burn-probability risk noted above. Details in the home-hardening guide.
Where Braman's figures come from
Braman's 36th-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 Braman's dominant minimal exposure actually means, with real examples from across the dataset.
