Dwight Mission, OK
Dwight Mission wildfire risk explained
Out of every US place USFS scores, Dwight Mission lands at the 96th percentile for wildfire risk to structures — in USFS's highest wildfire-risk band nationally — a figure built from its 117 buildings, not the land around them. (Source: USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities methodology.)
USFS's separate burn-probability score — fire likelihood alone, before counting what's built there — puts Dwight Mission at the 98th percentile, close to its 96th-percentile risk score.
Where Dwight Mission's buildings actually sit
Direct exposure dominates in Dwight Mission: 100% of its 117 buildings, versus 0% Indirect and 0% Minimal. Clearing space around a structure changes the outcome here more than any single building-material swap.
Dwight Mission against the rest of the country
Dwight Mission scores 96th nationally and 86th within Oklahoma — close enough that its state context doesn't change the picture the national number already gives. Among the 31,521 US communities USFS scores, Dwight Mission ranks 1,261 for wildfire risk (1 is highest) and 28,324 by building count (1 is largest).

Dwight Mission and the insurance market
At the 96th percentile nationally, Dwight Mission 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.
What would actually reduce this score
Dwight Mission's 100% 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.
