Dixie, GA
Dixie, GA's wildfire risk, in USFS's own numbers
USFS scores Dixie at the 61st national percentile for wildfire risk to structures (well above the national norm for wildfire risk), a figure built from 125 real buildings rather than raw vegetation cover. (Source: USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities methodology.)
Separately from the risk score above, Dixie's burn probability — fire likelihood with no building count factored in — sits at the 60th percentile nationally.
What "at risk" means for the buildings here
Of Dixie's 125 counted buildings, 91.2% 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.
Where Dixie ranks
Inside Georgia, Dixie sits at just the 21st percentile even though it scores 61st nationally — the state's overall wildfire exposure is high enough to make this a relatively quiet corner of it. Among the 31,521 US communities USFS scores, Dixie ranks 12,412 for wildfire risk (1 is highest) and 27,931 by building count (1 is largest). Within Georgia alone, it ranks 528 of 669 places by risk. See the full county-by-county picture for Georgia on its state page.
What this risk score means for insurance
Dixie's high rating (61st 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 91.2% of Dixie 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.
Where Dixie's figures come from
Dixie's 61st-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 Dixie's dominant direct exposure actually means, with real examples from across the dataset.
