USFS classifies 97.6% of Clark's Point's buildings as Direct exposure, higher than its 0% Indirect share and far above its 2.4% Minimal share — a profile where 81 structures sit close enough to vegetation that lot clearing matters most.

What would actually reduce this score
With 97.6% of Clark's Point 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.
