Carlton Landing, OK
Carlton Landing wildfire risk explained
Carlton Landing sits at the 93rd 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 23 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 Carlton Landing at the 94th percentile, close to its 93rd-percentile risk score.
Carlton Landing's building exposure, zone by zone
69.6% of Carlton Landing's 23 buildings fall in USFS's Indirect exposure zone — ember cast rather than direct flame — against 30.4% Direct and 0% Minimal. Vent screens and roofing material matter more here than lot clearing alone. This is a small settlement by building count — 23 total — so these shares describe a handful of structures, not a statistical average across thousands.

Shopping for coverage in Carlton Landing
Carlton Landing's 93rd-percentile, very high rating is the kind of score behind a broader national pattern: insurers pulling back from the highest wildfire-risk markets, non-renewing or declining new policies outright, most visibly in California. Shopping around, not assuming automatic renewal, tends to matter here.
Hardening a home in Carlton Landing
With ember exposure the dominant pattern in Carlton Landing (69.6% Indirect), vent screens and roofing material tend to matter more than lot clearing alone. The home-hardening guide covers both.
More on how this number was built
Every one of the two percentiles behind Carlton Landing's 2,300-place national rank traces to USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities dataset — see the methodology guide. At 23 buildings, Carlton Landing is close to the size where USFS's data gets thin — the data-quality guide explains why 517 places nationally get no score at all.
