What "at risk" means for the buildings here
Of Davisboro's 320 counted buildings, 69.7% 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.
Davisboro against the rest of the country
Inside Georgia, Davisboro sits at just the 43rd percentile even though it scores 65th nationally — the state's overall wildfire exposure is high enough to make this a relatively quiet corner of it.

Within Georgia alone, it ranks 378 of 669 places by risk. See the full county-by-county picture for Georgia on its state page.
