Hines, OR's wildfire risk, in USFS's own numbers
Out of every US place USFS scores, Hines lands at the 94th percentile for wildfire risk to structures — in USFS's highest wildfire-risk band nationally — a figure built from its 927 buildings, not the land around them. (Source: USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities methodology.)
Separately from the risk score above, Hines's burn probability — fire likelihood with no building count factored in — sits at the 95th percentile nationally.
Where Hines's buildings actually sit
USFS puts 76.4% of Hines's 927 buildings in the Indirect exposure zone, versus 23.6% Direct and 0% Minimal — a place where the fire doesn't need to reach the structure directly for embers to.
Where Hines ranks
Hines's risk sits at a similar level relative to Oregon (80th percentile statewide) as it does nationally (94th) — this place isn't unusual for its own state either way. Among the 31,521 US communities USFS scores, Hines ranks 2,056 for wildfire risk (1 is highest) and 12,501 by building count (1 is largest). Within Oregon alone, it ranks 84 of 420 places by risk. See the full county-by-county picture for Oregon on its state page.
Shopping for coverage in Hines
Hines's 94th-percentile score lands in Oregon, the only two states requiring a wildfire disclosure at sale. Oregon's own hazard map feeds directly into that disclosure requirement. The disclosure-law guide covers what it requires.
Hardening a home in Hines
With ember exposure the dominant pattern in Hines (76.4% Indirect), vent screens and roofing material tend to matter more than lot clearing alone. The home-hardening guide covers both.
Where Hines's figures come from
Every one of the two percentiles behind Hines's 2,056-place national rank traces to USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities dataset — see the methodology guide. The exposure-zones guide covers what Hines's dominant indirect exposure actually means, with real examples from across the dataset.
