Hebron, OH
Hebron wildfire risk explained
Out of every US place USFS scores, Hebron lands at the 12th percentile for wildfire risk to structures — among the lower wildfire-risk places nationally — a figure built from its 1,306 buildings, not the land around them. (Source: USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities methodology.)
Fire likelihood alone (USFS's burn-probability figure) ranks Hebron at the 12th national percentile — 0 points above its risk-to-structures score, a gap driven by how much is actually built there.
Where Hebron's buildings actually sit
Hebron rates 86.6% Minimal exposure against just 13.4% Direct and 0% Indirect — of 1,306 buildings counted, few sit close enough to burnable vegetation for USFS to flag them individually.
Hebron against the rest of the country
Hebron's 35th-percentile standing inside Ohio outpaces its 12th national percentile — this is a hotter spot than most of its own state, even though the state as a whole runs cooler nationally. Among the 31,521 US communities USFS scores, Hebron ranks 27,902 for wildfire risk (1 is highest) and 10,049 by building count (1 is largest). Within Ohio alone, it ranks 822 of 1,264 places by risk. See the full county-by-county picture for Ohio on its state page.
What this risk score means for insurance
At the 12th national percentile, Hebron 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
Hebron's 86.6% 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.
Where Hebron's figures come from
Every one of the two percentiles behind Hebron's 27,902-place national rank traces to USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities dataset — see the methodology guide. The exposure-zones guide covers what Hebron's dominant minimal exposure actually means, with real examples from across the dataset.
