Four Corners, OR
Four Corners wildfire risk explained
USFS scores Four Corners at the 14th national percentile for wildfire risk to structures (among the lower wildfire-risk places nationally), a figure built from 5,256 real buildings rather than raw vegetation cover. (Source: USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities methodology.)
USFS's separate burn-probability score — fire likelihood alone, before counting what's built there — puts Four Corners at the 17th percentile, close to its 14th-percentile risk score.
Four Corners's building exposure, zone by zone
Only 0.6% of Four Corners's 5,256 buildings carry Direct exposure and 0% carry Indirect; the remaining 99.4% are Minimal, which shifts the risk driving this page's score toward the surrounding landscape rather than any one structure. At 5,256 buildings, this is a substantial built environment, so the shares below describe a real population of structures, not a handful of edge cases.
How Four Corners compares
Four Corners scores 14th nationally and 8th within Oregon — close enough that its state context doesn't change the picture the national number already gives. Among the 31,521 US communities USFS scores, Four Corners ranks 27,116 for wildfire risk (1 is highest) and 3,280 by building count (1 is largest). Within Oregon alone, it ranks 387 of 420 places by risk. See the full county-by-county picture for Oregon on its state page.
Four Corners and the insurance market
Because Four Corners is in Oregon, a wildfire-hazard disclosure is legally required before a sale closes here — unusual nationally, since only these two states mandate it. Full detail in the disclosure-law guide.
Hardening a home in Four Corners
Four Corners's 99.4% 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.
