Eden, TX
How exposed is Eden to wildfire?
Eden's 865 buildings earn a 86th-percentile wildfire-risk score nationally under USFS's model — in USFS's highest wildfire-risk band nationally. (Source: USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities methodology.)
USFS's separate burn-probability score — fire likelihood alone, before counting what's built there — puts Eden at the 84th percentile, close to its 86th-percentile risk score.
Where Eden's buildings actually sit
73.8% of Eden's 865 buildings fall in USFS's Indirect exposure zone — ember cast rather than direct flame — against 26.2% Direct and 0% Minimal. Vent screens and roofing material matter more here than lot clearing alone.
Eden against the rest of the country
There's little gap between Eden's 86th national percentile and its 76th percentile inside Texas, which means the state comparison mostly confirms what the national score already shows. Among the 31,521 US communities USFS scores, Eden ranks 4,394 for wildfire risk (1 is highest) and 13,033 by building count (1 is largest). Within Texas alone, it ranks 436 of 1,795 places by risk. See the full county-by-county picture for Texas on its state page.
What this risk score means for insurance
Eden's very high rating (86th 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.
Hardening a home in Eden
Because 73.8% of Eden's buildings sit in the Indirect zone, sealing the ember pathway (vents, roofing, gutters) is the intervention this page's data actually supports — see the home-hardening guide.
