Forest Park, OK
Forest Park, OK's wildfire risk, in USFS's own numbers
Forest Park's 645 buildings earn a 73rd-percentile wildfire-risk score nationally under USFS's model — well above the national norm for wildfire risk. (Source: USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities methodology.)
USFS's separate burn-probability score — fire likelihood alone, before counting what's built there — puts Forest Park at the 74th percentile, close to its 73rd-percentile risk score.
What "at risk" means for the buildings here
645 buildings are counted in Forest Park, and 81.7% of them sit in USFS's Direct exposure zone — flame contact, not just ember cast, is the live possibility for most of them, against 18.3% rated Minimal.
How Forest Park compares
Inside Oklahoma, Forest Park sits at just the 13th percentile even though it scores 73rd 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, Forest Park ranks 8,419 for wildfire risk (1 is highest) and 15,268 by building count (1 is largest). Within Oklahoma alone, it ranks 729 of 834 places by risk. See the full county-by-county picture for Oklahoma on its state page.
Shopping for coverage in Forest Park
At the 73rd percentile nationally, Forest Park carries the 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
Because Direct exposure dominates in Forest Park (81.7%), the highest-leverage fix is defensible space, not roofing or vents alone — covered in the home-hardening guide.
Where Forest Park's figures come from
Forest Park's 73rd-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 Forest Park's dominant direct exposure actually means, with real examples from across the dataset.
