Burbank, OK
How exposed is Burbank to wildfire?
Burbank sits at the 98th 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 129 counted buildings, not vegetation cover alone. (Source: USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities methodology.)
USFS's separate burn-probability score — fire likelihood alone, before counting what's built there — puts Burbank at the 98th percentile, close to its 98th-percentile risk score.
Where Burbank's buildings actually sit
71.3% of Burbank's 129 buildings sit in USFS's Direct exposure zone, roughly 92 structures close enough to burnable vegetation for flame contact, not just embers — 28.7% fall in the Indirect, ember-only zone and 0% are Minimal.
How Burbank compares
Burbank's risk sits at a similar level relative to Oklahoma (98th percentile statewide) as it does nationally (98th) — this place isn't unusual for its own state either way. Among the 31,521 US communities USFS scores, Burbank ranks 575 for wildfire risk (1 is highest) and 27,769 by building count (1 is largest). Within Oklahoma alone, it ranks 13 of 834 places by risk. See the full county-by-county picture for Oklahoma on its state page.
Shopping for coverage in Burbank
Burbank's very high rating (98th 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.
What would actually reduce this score
Burbank's 71.3% Direct-exposure share means lot clearing around the structure typically outweighs any single material upgrade here. The home-hardening guide ranks the options for a place shaped like this.
Where Burbank's figures come from
Every one of the two percentiles behind Burbank's 575-place national rank traces to USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities dataset — see the methodology guide. The exposure-zones guide covers what Burbank's dominant direct exposure actually means, with real examples from across the dataset.
