Johnson City, OR
Johnson City, OR's wildfire risk, in USFS's own numbers
USFS scores Johnson City at the 21st national percentile for wildfire risk to structures (close to the middle of USFS's national wildfire-risk range), a figure built from 282 real buildings rather than raw vegetation cover. (Source: USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities methodology.)
Separately from the risk score above, Johnson City's burn probability — fire likelihood with no building count factored in — sits at the 22nd percentile nationally.
Johnson City's building exposure, zone by zone
Most of Johnson City's buildings (64.2% of 282) 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.
Where Johnson City ranks
There's little gap between Johnson City's 21st national percentile and its 16th percentile inside Oregon, which means the state comparison mostly confirms what the national score already shows. Among the 31,521 US communities USFS scores, Johnson City ranks 24,875 for wildfire risk (1 is highest) and 22,132 by building count (1 is largest). Within Oregon alone, it ranks 355 of 420 places by risk. See the full county-by-county picture for Oregon on its state page.
Shopping for coverage in Johnson City
Johnson City sits in Oregon, one of two states that legally require a wildfire-risk disclosure at sale. Sellers here disclose wildfire-hazard status before closing, the same number this page reports at the 21st national percentile. More on the disclosure law.
What would actually reduce this score
Even with 64.2% of Johnson City 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.
