Deweyville, TX
Deweyville, TX's wildfire risk, in USFS's own numbers
Deweyville sits at the 85th percentile nationally for wildfire risk to structures — in USFS's highest wildfire-risk band nationally — per USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities model, built from its 579 counted buildings, not vegetation cover alone. (Source: USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities methodology.)
USFS's separate burn-probability score — fire likelihood alone, before counting what's built there — puts Deweyville at the 87th percentile, close to its 85th-percentile risk score.
What "at risk" means for the buildings here
579 buildings are counted in Deweyville, and 68.1% 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.
How Deweyville compares
Deweyville scores 85th nationally and 74th within Texas — close enough that its state context doesn't change the picture the national number already gives. Among the 31,521 US communities USFS scores, Deweyville ranks 4,736 for wildfire risk (1 is highest) and 16,120 by building count (1 is largest). Within Texas alone, it ranks 475 of 1,795 places by risk. See the full county-by-county picture for Texas on its state page.
Deweyville and the insurance market
Deweyville's very high rating (85th 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
Deweyville's 68.1% Direct-exposure share means lot clearing around the structure typically outweighs any single material upgrade here. The home-hardening guide ranks the options for a place shaped like this.
Where Deweyville's figures come from
Deweyville's 85th-percentile score and its burn-probability figure both come from the same USFS workbook, documented in the methodology guide. The exposure-zones guide covers what Deweyville's dominant direct exposure actually means, with real examples from across the dataset.
