Holly Hills, CO
Holly Hills wildfire risk explained
USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities model puts Holly Hills at the 36th national percentile for risk to structures, close to the middle of USFS's national wildfire-risk range — a score built from 1,125 actual buildings. (Source: USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities methodology.)
Fire likelihood alone (USFS's burn-probability figure) ranks Holly Hills at the 41st national percentile — 5 points above its risk-to-structures score, a gap driven by how much is actually built there.
Holly Hills's building exposure, zone by zone
USFS classifies 94.8% of Holly Hills's buildings as Minimal exposure, the largest of the three zones here by a wide margin over 5.2% Direct and 0% Indirect — a landscape-level risk rather than a building-by-building one.
Where Holly Hills ranks
Holly Hills's 36th national percentile looks worse in isolation than its 6th ranking inside Colorado does — this place is on the milder end for its own state, by 30 points. Among the 31,521 US communities USFS scores, Holly Hills ranks 20,130 for wildfire risk (1 is highest) and 11,114 by building count (1 is largest). Within Colorado alone, it ranks 445 of 472 places by risk. See the full county-by-county picture for Colorado on its state page.
Shopping for coverage in Holly Hills
Holly Hills's moderate rating (36th percentile nationally) sits outside the range where wildfire risk alone reshapes an insurance market — still, a homeowner here loses nothing by comparing rates.
Hardening a home in Holly Hills
Even with 94.8% of Holly Hills outside USFS's Direct and Indirect zones, basic hardening — gutter maintenance, ember-resistant vents — is inexpensive relative to the regional burn-probability risk noted above. Details in the home-hardening guide.
