Egypt, AR
Egypt, AR's wildfire risk, in USFS's own numbers
USFS scores Egypt at the 42nd national percentile for wildfire risk to structures (modestly above the national average for wildfire risk), a figure built from 86 real buildings rather than raw vegetation cover. (Source: USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities methodology.)
Separately from the risk score above, Egypt's burn probability — fire likelihood with no building count factored in — sits at the 44th percentile nationally.
Egypt's building exposure, zone by zone
Most of Egypt's buildings (59.3% of 86) fall outside USFS's Direct and Indirect zones entirely — that doesn't zero out the score above, it means the risk is regional, not structure-by-structure.
Egypt against the rest of the country
Egypt ranks lower within Arkansas (20th percentile statewide) than its 42nd national percentile suggests alone — a calmer spot in a state where wildfire risk generally runs high. Among the 31,521 US communities USFS scores, Egypt ranks 18,363 for wildfire risk (1 is highest) and 29,641 by building count (1 is largest). Within Arkansas alone, it ranks 494 of 614 places by risk. See the full county-by-county picture for Arkansas on its state page.
What this risk score means for insurance
At the 42nd national percentile, Egypt rates elevated for wildfire risk — well short of the threshold where insurers have been withdrawing coverage, though comparing a quote costs nothing either way.
What would actually reduce this score
With 59.3% of buildings rated Minimal exposure, Egypt gets less benefit from structure hardening than a Direct- or Indirect-dominant place would — the home-hardening guide explains why the zone matters.
More on how this number was built
Egypt's 42nd-percentile score and its burn-probability figure both come from the same USFS workbook, documented in the methodology guide. For more on what minimal exposure implies beyond Egypt, see the exposure-zones guide.
