Brooksville, OK
Brooksville wildfire risk explained
Brooksville sits at the 92nd percentile nationally for wildfire risk to structures — in USFS's highest wildfire-risk band nationally — per USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities model, built from its 88 counted buildings, not vegetation cover alone. (Source: USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities methodology.)
Fire likelihood alone (USFS's burn-probability figure) ranks Brooksville at the 94th national percentile — 1 points above its risk-to-structures score, a gap driven by how much is actually built there.

Brooksville and the insurance market
