Goodville, PA
How exposed is Goodville to wildfire?
Goodville sits at the 7th 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 292 counted buildings, not vegetation cover alone. (Source: USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities methodology.)
Separately from the risk score above, Goodville's burn probability — fire likelihood with no building count factored in — sits at the 6th percentile nationally.
Where Goodville's buildings actually sit
Only 28.4% of Goodville's 292 buildings carry Direct exposure and 6.2% carry Indirect; the remaining 65.4% are Minimal, which shifts the risk driving this page's score toward the surrounding landscape rather than any one structure.
How Goodville compares
Goodville scores 7th nationally and 4th 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, Goodville ranks 29,451 for wildfire risk (1 is highest) and 21,863 by building count (1 is largest). Within Pennsylvania alone, it ranks 1,915 of 1,991 places by risk. See the full county-by-county picture for Pennsylvania on its state page.
Shopping for coverage in Goodville
At the 7th national percentile, Goodville rates low 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
Goodville's 65.4% 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.
