Davenport, WA's wildfire risk, in USFS's own numbers

High
75thpercentile nationally

Out of every US place USFS scores, Davenport lands at the 75th percentile for wildfire risk to structures — well above the national norm for wildfire risk — a figure built from its 1,198 buildings, not the land around them. (Source: USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities methodology.)

Separately from the risk score above, Davenport's burn probability — fire likelihood with no building count factored in — sits at the 76th percentile nationally.

What "at risk" means for the buildings here

1,198Total buildings
4.5%Direct exposure
0%Indirect exposure
95.5%Minimal exposure

USFS classifies 95.5% of Davenport's buildings as Minimal exposure, the largest of the three zones here by a wide margin over 4.5% Direct and 0% Indirect — a landscape-level risk rather than a building-by-building one.

Where Davenport ranks

There's little gap between Davenport's 75th national percentile and its 73rd percentile inside Washington, which means the state comparison mostly confirms what the national score already shows. Among the 31,521 US communities USFS scores, Davenport ranks 7,768 for wildfire risk (1 is highest) and 10,655 by building count (1 is largest). Within Washington alone, it ranks 172 of 628 places by risk. See the full county-by-county picture for Washington on its state page.

Shopping for coverage in Davenport

Davenport's high rating (75th 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.

Lowering exposure, not just insuring around it

With 95.5% of buildings rated Minimal exposure, Davenport gets less benefit from structure hardening than a Direct- or Indirect-dominant place would — the home-hardening guide explains why the zone matters.
