Cedarville, AR's wildfire risk, in USFS's own numbers
Cedarville's 947 buildings earn a 93rd-percentile wildfire-risk score nationally under USFS's model — in USFS's highest wildfire-risk band nationally. (Source: USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities methodology.)
USFS's separate burn-probability score — fire likelihood alone, before counting what's built there — puts Cedarville at the 95th percentile, close to its 93rd-percentile risk score.
Cedarville's building exposure, zone by zone
USFS classifies 98.2% of Cedarville's buildings as Direct exposure, higher than its 1.8% Indirect share and far above its 0% Minimal share — a profile where 930 structures sit close enough to vegetation that lot clearing matters most.
Where Cedarville ranks
Cedarville's risk sits at a similar level relative to Arkansas (100th percentile statewide) as it does nationally (93rd) — this place isn't unusual for its own state either way. Among the 31,521 US communities USFS scores, Cedarville ranks 2,351 for wildfire risk (1 is highest) and 12,323 by building count (1 is largest). Within Arkansas alone, it ranks 3 of 614 places by risk. See the full county-by-county picture for Arkansas on its state page.
What this risk score means for insurance
Cedarville's very high rating (93rd 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.

Because Direct exposure dominates in Cedarville (98.2%), the highest-leverage fix is defensible space, not roofing or vents alone — covered in the home-hardening guide.
Where Cedarville's figures come from
