Enola, AR
Enola wildfire risk explained
USFS scores Enola at the 84th national percentile for wildfire risk to structures (in USFS's highest wildfire-risk band nationally), a figure built from 308 real buildings rather than raw vegetation cover. (Source: USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities methodology.)
Separately from the risk score above, Enola's burn probability — fire likelihood with no building count factored in — sits at the 88th percentile nationally.
Where Enola's buildings actually sit
308 buildings are counted in Enola, and 100% of them sit in USFS's Direct exposure zone — flame contact, not just ember cast, is the live possibility for most of them, against 0% rated Minimal.
Enola against the rest of the country
Enola's risk sits at a similar level relative to Arkansas (91st percentile statewide) as it does nationally (84th) — this place isn't unusual for its own state either way. Among the 31,521 US communities USFS scores, Enola ranks 5,031 for wildfire risk (1 is highest) and 21,412 by building count (1 is largest). Within Arkansas alone, it ranks 57 of 614 places by risk. See the full county-by-county picture for Arkansas on its state page.
Enola and the insurance market
Enola's 84th-percentile, very high rating is the kind of score behind a broader national pattern: insurers pulling back from the highest wildfire-risk markets, non-renewing or declining new policies outright, most visibly in California. Shopping around, not assuming automatic renewal, tends to matter here.
Hardening a home in Enola
With 100% of Enola 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.
