Chiawuli Tak, AZ
How exposed is Chiawuli Tak to wildfire?
Chiawuli Tak's 46 buildings earn a 86th-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.)
Fire likelihood alone (USFS's burn-probability figure) ranks Chiawuli Tak at the 83rd national percentile — 3 points below its risk-to-structures score, a gap driven by how much is actually built there.
Where Chiawuli Tak's buildings actually sit
Of Chiawuli Tak's 46 counted buildings, 100% carry Direct exposure and only 0% carry Minimal — a lopsided split that puts defensible-space clearing ahead of vents or roofing as the intervention worth doing first.
How Chiawuli Tak compares
Inside Arizona, Chiawuli Tak sits at just the 57th percentile even though it scores 86th nationally — the state's overall wildfire exposure is high enough to make this a relatively quiet corner of it.

Within Arizona alone, it ranks 192 of 441 places by risk. See the full county-by-county picture for Arizona on its state page.
Shopping for coverage in Chiawuli Tak
Chiawuli Tak's very high rating (86th 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
Because Direct exposure dominates in Chiawuli Tak (100%), the highest-leverage fix is defensible space, not roofing or vents alone — covered in the home-hardening guide.
More on how this number was built
Chiawuli Tak's 86th-percentile score and its burn-probability figure both come from the same USFS workbook, documented in the methodology guide. For more on what direct exposure implies beyond Chiawuli Tak, see the exposure-zones guide.
