Celina, OH
How exposed is Celina to wildfire?
Celina sits at the 1st percentile nationally for wildfire risk to structures — among the lower wildfire-risk places nationally — per USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities model, built from its 5,351 counted buildings, not vegetation cover alone. (Source: USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities methodology.)
Separately from the risk score above, Celina's burn probability — fire likelihood with no building count factored in — sits at the 1st percentile nationally.
Where Celina's buildings actually sit
Celina rates 96.3% Minimal exposure against just 3.7% Direct and 0% Indirect — of 5,351 buildings counted, few sit close enough to burnable vegetation for USFS to flag them individually. At 5,351 buildings, this is a substantial built environment, so the shares below describe a real population of structures, not a handful of edge cases.
How Celina compares
There's little gap between Celina's 1st national percentile and its 7th percentile inside Ohio, which means the state comparison mostly confirms what the national score already shows. Among the 31,521 US communities USFS scores, Celina ranks 31,118 for wildfire risk (1 is highest) and 3,222 by building count (1 is largest). Within Ohio alone, it ranks 1,165 of 1,264 places by risk. See the full county-by-county picture for Ohio on its state page.
Shopping for coverage in Celina
At the 1st national percentile, Celina rates low for wildfire risk — well short of the threshold where insurers have been withdrawing coverage, though comparing a quote costs nothing either way.
Hardening a home in Celina
Even with 96.3% of Celina outside USFS's Direct and Indirect zones, basic hardening — gutter maintenance, ember-resistant vents — is inexpensive relative to the regional burn-probability risk noted above. Details in the home-hardening guide.
Where Celina's figures come from
The methodology guide shows exactly how USFS turned 5,351 counted buildings into the percentiles shown above for Celina. The exposure-zones guide covers what Celina's dominant minimal exposure actually means, with real examples from across the dataset.
