Fredericksburg (Lebanon), PA
Fredericksburg (Lebanon), PA's wildfire risk, in USFS's own numbers
Fredericksburg (Lebanon) sits at the 20th 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 752 counted buildings, not vegetation cover alone. (Source: USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities methodology.)
Fire likelihood alone (USFS's burn-probability figure) ranks Fredericksburg (Lebanon) at the 21st national percentile — 0 points above its risk-to-structures score, a gap driven by how much is actually built there.
Fredericksburg (Lebanon)'s building exposure, zone by zone
Most of Fredericksburg (Lebanon)'s buildings (54.8% of 752) 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.
How Fredericksburg (Lebanon) compares
Fredericksburg (Lebanon) scores 20th nationally and 22nd within Pennsylvania — close enough that its state context doesn't change the picture the national number already gives. Among the 31,521 US communities USFS scores, Fredericksburg (Lebanon) ranks 25,228 for wildfire risk (1 is highest) and 14,107 by building count (1 is largest). Within Pennsylvania alone, it ranks 1,559 of 1,991 places by risk. See the full county-by-county picture for Pennsylvania on its state page.
Fredericksburg (Lebanon) and the insurance market
Fredericksburg (Lebanon)'s low wildfire rating (20th 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.
What would actually reduce this score
Even with 54.8% of Fredericksburg (Lebanon) outside USFS's Direct and Indirect zones, basic hardening — gutter maintenance, ember-resistant vents — is inexpensive relative to the regional burn-probability risk noted above. Details in the home-hardening guide.
More on how this number was built
Fredericksburg (Lebanon)'s 20th-percentile score and its burn-probability figure both come from the same USFS workbook, documented in the methodology guide. For more on what minimal exposure implies beyond Fredericksburg (Lebanon), see the exposure-zones guide.
