Where Johnson Lane ranks
Inside Nevada, Johnson Lane sits at just the 83rd percentile even though it scores 98th nationally — the state's overall wildfire exposure is high enough to make this a relatively quiet corner of it.

Within Nevada alone, it ranks 22 of 123 places by risk. See the full county-by-county picture for Nevada on its state page.

Where Johnson Lane's figures come from
