How exposed is Farmersville to wildfire?

Low
6thpercentile nationally

Farmersville sits at the 6th percentile nationally for wildfire risk to structures — among the lower wildfire-risk places nationally — per USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities model, built from its 598 counted buildings, not vegetation cover alone. (Source: USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities methodology.)

Fire likelihood alone (USFS's burn-probability figure) ranks Farmersville at the 7th national percentile — 0 points above its risk-to-structures score, a gap driven by how much is actually built there.

Where Farmersville's buildings actually sit

598Total buildings
19.1%Direct exposure
0%Indirect exposure
80.9%Minimal exposure

Most of Farmersville's buildings (80.9% of 598) 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.

Farmersville against the rest of the country

Compare Farmersville's two percentiles: 27th within Ohio, only 6th nationally — a gap of 20 points that marks it as unusually exposed for its own state.

Within Ohio alone, it ranks 929 of 1,264 places by risk. See the full county-by-county picture for Ohio on its state page.

Farmersville and the insurance market

At the 6th national percentile, Farmersville rates low 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

Farmersville's 80.9% 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.
