Crystal Springs, FL
Crystal Springs, FL's wildfire risk, in USFS's own numbers
USFS scores Crystal Springs at the 96th national percentile for wildfire risk to structures (in USFS's highest wildfire-risk band nationally), a figure built from 813 real buildings rather than raw vegetation cover. (Source: USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities methodology.)
Fire likelihood alone (USFS's burn-probability figure) ranks Crystal Springs at the 97th national percentile — 1 points above its risk-to-structures score, a gap driven by how much is actually built there.
Crystal Springs's building exposure, zone by zone
Of Crystal Springs's 813 counted buildings, 98.5% carry Direct exposure and only 0% carry Minimal — a lopsided split that puts defensible-space clearing ahead of vents or roofing as the intervention worth doing first.
How Crystal Springs compares
Crystal Springs scores 96th nationally and 95th within Florida — close enough that its state context doesn't change the picture the national number already gives. Among the 31,521 US communities USFS scores, Crystal Springs ranks 1,351 for wildfire risk (1 is highest) and 13,518 by building count (1 is largest). Within Florida alone, it ranks 54 of 955 places by risk. See the full county-by-county picture for Florida on its state page.
Crystal Springs and the insurance market
Crystal Springs's very high rating (96th 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 98.5% of Crystal Springs 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.
