Crescent, OR
Crescent, OR's wildfire risk, in USFS's own numbers
USFS scores Crescent at the 75th national percentile for wildfire risk to structures (well above the national norm for wildfire risk), a figure built from 392 real buildings rather than raw vegetation cover. (Source: USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities methodology.)
USFS's separate burn-probability score — fire likelihood alone, before counting what's built there — puts Crescent at the 77th percentile, close to its 75th-percentile risk score.
Crescent's building exposure, zone by zone
392 buildings are counted in Crescent, and 58.2% of them sit in USFS's Direct exposure zone — flame contact, not just ember cast, is the live possibility for most of them, against 0% rated Minimal.
Where Crescent ranks
Crescent's 75th national percentile looks worse in isolation than its 59th ranking inside Oregon does — this place is on the milder end for its own state, by 17 points. Among the 31,521 US communities USFS scores, Crescent ranks 7,886 for wildfire risk (1 is highest) and 19,377 by building count (1 is largest). Within Oregon alone, it ranks 175 of 420 places by risk. See the full county-by-county picture for Oregon on its state page.
Shopping for coverage in Crescent
Crescent's 75th-percentile score lands in Oregon, the only two states requiring a wildfire disclosure at sale. Oregon's own hazard map feeds directly into that disclosure requirement. The disclosure-law guide covers what it requires.
What would actually reduce this score
With 58.2% of Crescent 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.
