Cloverdale, OR
Cloverdale, OR's wildfire risk, in USFS's own numbers
USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities model puts Cloverdale at the 47th national percentile for risk to structures, modestly above the national average for wildfire risk — a score built from 181 actual buildings. (Source: USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities methodology.)
Fire likelihood alone (USFS's burn-probability figure) ranks Cloverdale at the 46th national percentile — 1 points below its risk-to-structures score, a gap driven by how much is actually built there.
What "at risk" means for the buildings here
USFS classifies 61.9% of Cloverdale's buildings as Direct exposure, higher than its 38.1% Indirect share and far above its 0% Minimal share — a profile where 112 structures sit close enough to vegetation that lot clearing matters most.
