Euless, TX
How exposed is Euless to wildfire?
Out of every US place USFS scores, Euless lands at the 55th percentile for wildfire risk to structures — modestly above the national average for wildfire risk — a figure built from its 15,214 buildings, not the land around them. (Source: USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities methodology.)
USFS's separate burn-probability score — fire likelihood alone, before counting what's built there — puts Euless at the 57th percentile, close to its 55th-percentile risk score.
Euless's building exposure, zone by zone
Only 8% of Euless's 15,214 buildings carry Direct exposure and 3.2% carry Indirect; the remaining 88.7% are Minimal, which shifts the risk driving this page's score toward the surrounding landscape rather than any one structure. At 15,214 buildings, this is a substantial built environment, so the shares below describe a real population of structures, not a handful of edge cases.
Euless against the rest of the country
Euless's 55th national percentile looks worse in isolation than its 10th ranking inside Texas does — this place is on the milder end for its own state, by 45 points. Among the 31,521 US communities USFS scores, Euless ranks 14,073 for wildfire risk (1 is highest) and 974 by building count (1 is largest). Within Texas alone, it ranks 1,613 of 1,795 places by risk.

Euless and the insurance market
Euless's elevated wildfire rating (55th percentile) isn't the kind of score driving the carrier pullback making news in the highest-risk Western markets — but a standard homeowners quote is still worth comparing on its own terms.
Hardening a home in Euless
Euless's 88.7% Minimal-exposure share means structure-level hardening matters less here than it would elsewhere — still worth the low-cost basics, per the home-hardening guide.
Where Euless's figures come from
Euless's 55th-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 Euless's dominant minimal exposure actually means, with real examples from across the dataset.
