Days Creek, OR
How exposed is Days Creek to wildfire?
Out of every US place USFS scores, Days Creek lands at the 99th percentile for wildfire risk to structures — in USFS's highest wildfire-risk band nationally — a figure built from its 280 buildings, not the land around them. (Source: USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities methodology.)
Fire likelihood alone (USFS's burn-probability figure) ranks Days Creek at the 99th national percentile — 0 points above its risk-to-structures score, a gap driven by how much is actually built there.
Where Days Creek's buildings actually sit
280 buildings are counted in Days Creek, and 100% 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.
