Canute, OK
How exposed is Canute to wildfire?
Canute's 428 buildings earn a 79th-percentile wildfire-risk score nationally under USFS's model — well above the national norm for wildfire risk. (Source: USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities methodology.)
Fire likelihood alone (USFS's burn-probability figure) ranks Canute at the 76th national percentile — 4 points below its risk-to-structures score, a gap driven by how much is actually built there.
Where Canute's buildings actually sit
Indirect exposure is dominant in Canute (83.4% of 428 buildings): far enough from burnable vegetation to avoid flame contact, close enough for wind-blown embers. Only 16.6% sit in the Direct zone.
How Canute compares
Canute's 79th national percentile looks worse in isolation than its 19th ranking inside Oklahoma does — this place is on the milder end for its own state, by 60 points. Among the 31,521 US communities USFS scores, Canute ranks 6,499 for wildfire risk (1 is highest) and 18,697 by building count (1 is largest). Within Oklahoma alone, it ranks 674 of 834 places by risk. See the full county-by-county picture for Oklahoma on its state page.
Canute and the insurance market
Canute's high rating (79th 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.
Lowering exposure, not just insuring around it
With ember exposure the dominant pattern in Canute (83.4% Indirect), vent screens and roofing material tend to matter more than lot clearing alone. The home-hardening guide covers both.
Where Canute's figures come from
Every one of the two percentiles behind Canute's 6,499-place national rank traces to USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities dataset — see the methodology guide. The exposure-zones guide covers what Canute's dominant indirect exposure actually means, with real examples from across the dataset.
