Calverton Park, MO

Calverton Park, MO's wildfire risk, in USFS's own numbers

Elevated
47thpercentile nationally

Out of every US place USFS scores, Calverton Park lands at the 47th percentile for wildfire risk to structures — modestly above the national average for wildfire risk — a figure built from its 656 buildings, not the land around them. (Source: USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities methodology.)

Fire likelihood alone (USFS's burn-probability figure) ranks Calverton Park at the 50th national percentile — 3 points above its risk-to-structures score, a gap driven by how much is actually built there.

What "at risk" means for the buildings here

656Total buildings
5.6%Direct exposure
0%Indirect exposure
94.4%Minimal exposure

Most of Calverton Park's buildings (94.4% of 656) fall outside USFS's Direct and Indirect zones entirely — that doesn't zero out the score above, it means the risk is regional, not structure-by-structure.

How Calverton Park compares

Inside Missouri, Calverton Park sits at just the 27th percentile even though it scores 47th nationally — the state's overall wildfire exposure is high enough to make this a relatively quiet corner of it.

Within Missouri alone, it ranks 779 of 1,062 places by risk. See the full county-by-county picture for Missouri on its state page.

What this risk score means for insurance

At the 47th national percentile, Calverton Park rates elevated for wildfire risk — well short of the threshold where insurers have been withdrawing coverage, though comparing a quote costs nothing either way.

What would actually reduce this score

With 94.4% of buildings rated Minimal exposure, Calverton Park gets less benefit from structure hardening than a Direct- or Indirect-dominant place would — the home-hardening guide explains why the zone matters.
