What "at risk" means for the buildings here
Direct exposure dominates in Fuller Acres: 55.7% of its 451 buildings, versus 0% Indirect and 44.4% Minimal. Clearing space around a structure changes the outcome here more than any single building-material swap.
Where Fuller Acres ranks

Within California alone, it ranks 1,145 of 1,570 places by risk. See the full county-by-county picture for California on its state page.
What this risk score means for insurance
Fuller Acres's 70th-percentile score lands in California, the only two states requiring a wildfire disclosure at sale. California's surplus-lines homeowners market passed 300,000 policies for the first time in 2025, driven by carriers pulling back from wildfire-exposed areas statewide. The disclosure-law guide covers what it requires.
Lowering exposure, not just insuring around it
With 55.7% of Fuller Acres in Direct exposure, defensible-space clearing and ember-resistant construction (vents, Class-A roofing) address the exposure this page's own numbers describe, not a generic checklist. See the home-hardening guide.
Where Fuller Acres's figures come from
Fuller Acres's 70th-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 Fuller Acres's dominant direct exposure actually means, with real examples from across the dataset.
