Hunts Point, WA
How exposed is Hunts Point to wildfire?
Out of every US place USFS scores, Hunts Point lands at the 4th percentile for wildfire risk to structures — among the lower wildfire-risk places nationally — a figure built from its 256 buildings, not the land around them. (Source: USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities methodology.)
Separately from the risk score above, Hunts Point's burn probability — fire likelihood with no building count factored in — sits at the 5th percentile nationally.
Where Hunts Point's buildings actually sit
Most of Hunts Point's buildings (73.8% of 256) fall outside USFS's Direct and Indirect zones entirely — that doesn't zero out the score above, it means the risk is regional, not structure-by-structure.
How Hunts Point compares
Hunts Point scores 4th nationally and 0th within Washington — close enough that its state context doesn't change the picture the national number already gives. Among the 31,521 US communities USFS scores, Hunts Point ranks 30,179 for wildfire risk (1 is highest) and 22,963 by building count (1 is largest). Within Washington alone, it ranks 626 of 628 places by risk. See the full county-by-county picture for Washington on its state page.
Shopping for coverage in Hunts Point
Hunts Point's low rating (4th percentile nationally) sits outside the range where wildfire risk alone reshapes an insurance market — still, a homeowner here loses nothing by comparing rates.
Lowering exposure, not just insuring around it
With 73.8% of buildings rated Minimal exposure, Hunts Point gets less benefit from structure hardening than a Direct- or Indirect-dominant place would — the home-hardening guide explains why the zone matters.
More on how this number was built
Hunts Point's 4th-percentile score and its burn-probability figure both come from the same USFS workbook, documented in the methodology guide. For more on what minimal exposure implies beyond Hunts Point, see the exposure-zones guide.
