Gamerco, NM
Gamerco, NM's wildfire risk, in USFS's own numbers
USFS scores Gamerco at the 31st national percentile for wildfire risk to structures (close to the middle of USFS's national wildfire-risk range), a figure built from 539 real buildings rather than raw vegetation cover. (Source: USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities methodology.)
Separately from the risk score above, Gamerco's burn probability — fire likelihood with no building count factored in — sits at the 28th percentile nationally.
What "at risk" means for the buildings here
82.9% of Gamerco's 539 buildings fall in USFS's Indirect exposure zone — ember cast rather than direct flame — against 17.1% Direct and 0% Minimal. Vent screens and roofing material matter more here than lot clearing alone.
Gamerco against the rest of the country
Gamerco's 31st national percentile looks worse in isolation than its 2nd ranking inside New Mexico does — this place is on the milder end for its own state, by 28 points. Among the 31,521 US communities USFS scores, Gamerco ranks 21,841 for wildfire risk (1 is highest) and 16,736 by building count (1 is largest). Within New Mexico alone, it ranks 484 of 495 places by risk. See the full county-by-county picture for New Mexico on its state page.
Gamerco and the insurance market
At the 31st national percentile, Gamerco rates moderate for wildfire risk — well short of the threshold where insurers have been withdrawing coverage, though comparing a quote costs nothing either way.
Lowering exposure, not just insuring around it
With ember exposure the dominant pattern in Gamerco (82.9% Indirect), vent screens and roofing material tend to matter more than lot clearing alone. The home-hardening guide covers both.
More on how this number was built
Gamerco's 31st-percentile score and its burn-probability figure both come from the same USFS workbook, documented in the methodology guide. For more on what indirect exposure implies beyond Gamerco, see the exposure-zones guide.
