Humphrey, AR's wildfire risk, in USFS's own numbers

Moderate
35thpercentile nationally

Humphrey's 356 buildings earn a 35th-percentile wildfire-risk score nationally under USFS's model — close to the middle of USFS's national wildfire-risk range. (Source: USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities methodology.)

Fire likelihood alone (USFS's burn-probability figure) ranks Humphrey at the 35th national percentile — 1 points above its risk-to-structures score, a gap driven by how much is actually built there.

What "at risk" means for the buildings here

356Total buildings
35.7%Direct exposure
64.3%Indirect exposure
0%Minimal exposure

Indirect exposure is dominant in Humphrey (64.3% of 356 buildings): far enough from burnable vegetation to avoid flame contact, close enough for wind-blown embers. Only 35.7% sit in the Direct zone.

How Humphrey compares

Humphrey's 35th national percentile looks worse in isolation than its 16th ranking inside Arkansas does — this place is on the milder end for its own state, by 19 points. Among the 31,521 US communities USFS scores, Humphrey ranks 20,601 for wildfire risk (1 is highest) and 20,152 by building count (1 is largest). Within Arkansas alone, it ranks 517 of 614 places by risk. See the full county-by-county picture for Arkansas on its state page.

Humphrey and the insurance market

Humphrey's moderate wildfire rating (35th percentile) isn't the kind of score driving the carrier pullback making news in the highest-risk Western markets — but a standard homeowners quote is still worth comparing on its own terms.

What would actually reduce this score

Because 64.3% of Humphrey's buildings sit in the Indirect zone, sealing the ember pathway (vents, roofing, gutters) is the intervention this page's data actually supports — see the home-hardening guide.

More on how this number was built

Humphrey's 35th-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 Humphrey, see the exposure-zones guide.
