Doney Park, AZ
Doney Park, AZ's wildfire risk, in USFS's own numbers
Doney Park sits at the 98th 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 3,493 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 Doney Park at the 97th percentile, close to its 98th-percentile risk score.
Where Doney Park's buildings actually sit
Direct exposure dominates in Doney Park: 76% of its 3,493 buildings, versus 21.8% Indirect and 2.2% Minimal. Clearing space around a structure changes the outcome here more than any single building-material swap.
Doney Park against the rest of the country
Doney Park's risk sits at a similar level relative to Arizona (87th percentile statewide) as it does nationally (98th) — this place isn't unusual for its own state either way. Among the 31,521 US communities USFS scores, Doney Park ranks 680 for wildfire risk (1 is highest) and 4,777 by building count (1 is largest). Within Arizona alone, it ranks 58 of 441 places by risk. See the full county-by-county picture for Arizona on its state page.
What this risk score means for insurance
At the 98th percentile nationally, Doney Park carries the very high rating that has pushed some carriers to limit new business in similarly-scored places elsewhere in the country. Worth comparing quotes rather than assuming last year's renewal terms still apply.
Hardening a home in Doney Park
