Citrus Park, AZ
How exposed is Citrus Park to wildfire?
USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities model puts Citrus Park at the 69th national percentile for risk to structures, well above the national norm for wildfire risk — a score built from 3,154 actual buildings. (Source: USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities methodology.)
Fire likelihood alone (USFS's burn-probability figure) ranks Citrus Park at the 69th national percentile — 0 points below its risk-to-structures score, a gap driven by how much is actually built there.
Citrus Park's building exposure, zone by zone
77% of Citrus Park's 3,154 buildings sit in USFS's Direct exposure zone, roughly 2,429 structures close enough to burnable vegetation for flame contact, not just embers — 19.6% fall in the Indirect, ember-only zone and 3.4% are Minimal.
Where Citrus Park ranks
Inside Arizona, Citrus Park sits at just the 32nd percentile even though it scores 69th nationally — the state's overall wildfire exposure is high enough to make this a relatively quiet corner of it.

Within Arizona alone, it ranks 299 of 441 places by risk. See the full county-by-county picture for Arizona on its state page.
Shopping for coverage in Citrus Park
Citrus Park's high rating (69th 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.
What would actually reduce this score
With 77% of Citrus Park in Direct exposure, defensible-space clearing and ember-resistant construction (vents, Class-A roofing) address the exposure this page's own numbers describe, not a generic checklist. See the home-hardening guide.
