Commercial Point, OH
Commercial Point, OH's wildfire risk, in USFS's own numbers
USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities model puts Commercial Point at the 6th national percentile for risk to structures, among the lower wildfire-risk places nationally — a score built from 1,151 actual buildings. (Source: USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities methodology.)
USFS's separate burn-probability score — fire likelihood alone, before counting what's built there — puts Commercial Point at the 7th percentile, close to its 6th-percentile risk score.
Where Commercial Point's buildings actually sit
USFS classifies 75.5% of Commercial Point's buildings as Minimal exposure, the largest of the three zones here by a wide margin over 24.5% Direct and 0% Indirect — a landscape-level risk rather than a building-by-building one.
Where Commercial Point ranks
Commercial Point's 26th-percentile standing inside Ohio outpaces its 6th national percentile — this is a hotter spot than most of its own state, even though the state as a whole runs cooler nationally. Among the 31,521 US communities USFS scores, Commercial Point ranks 29,639 for wildfire risk (1 is highest) and 10,956 by building count (1 is largest). Within Ohio alone, it ranks 934 of 1,264 places by risk. See the full county-by-county picture for Ohio on its state page.
Shopping for coverage in Commercial Point
Commercial Point's low wildfire rating (6th percentile) isn't the kind of score driving the carrier pullback making news in the highest-risk Western markets — but a standard homeowners quote is still worth comparing on its own terms.
Lowering exposure, not just insuring around it
Commercial Point's 75.5% Minimal-exposure share means structure-level hardening matters less here than it would elsewhere — still worth the low-cost basics, per the home-hardening guide.
