How Eugenio Saenz compares

Eugenio Saenz scores 96th nationally and 97th within Texas — close enough that its state context doesn't change the picture the national number already gives. Among the 31,521 US communities USFS scores, Eugenio Saenz ranks 1,272 for wildfire risk (1 is highest) and 30,664 by building count (1 is largest). Within Texas alone, it ranks 64 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

At the 96th percentile nationally, Eugenio Saenz 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

With 85% of Eugenio Saenz 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.
