Enoree, SC
Enoree, SC's wildfire risk, in USFS's own numbers
Out of every US place USFS scores, Enoree lands at the 63rd percentile for wildfire risk to structures — well above the national norm for wildfire risk — a figure built from its 411 buildings, not the land around them. (Source: USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities methodology.)
Separately from the risk score above, Enoree's burn probability — fire likelihood with no building count factored in — sits at the 66th percentile nationally.
What "at risk" means for the buildings here
Of Enoree's 411 counted buildings, 78.4% carry Direct exposure and only 0% carry Minimal — a lopsided split that puts defensible-space clearing ahead of vents or roofing as the intervention worth doing first.
Enoree against the rest of the country
Inside South Carolina, Enoree sits at just the 29th percentile even though it scores 63rd nationally — the state's overall wildfire exposure is high enough to make this a relatively quiet corner of it. Among the 31,521 US communities USFS scores, Enoree ranks 11,578 for wildfire risk (1 is highest) and 19,019 by building count (1 is largest). Within South Carolina alone, it ranks 337 of 474 places by risk. See the full county-by-county picture for South Carolina on its state page.
Enoree and the insurance market
Enoree's 63rd-percentile, 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.
Lowering exposure, not just insuring around it
With 78.4% of Enoree 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.
Where Enoree's figures come from
Enoree's 63rd-percentile score and its burn-probability figure both come from the same USFS workbook, documented in the methodology guide. The exposure-zones guide covers what Enoree's dominant direct exposure actually means, with real examples from across the dataset.
