Johnson, OK

How exposed is Johnson to wildfire?

Very High
93rdpercentile nationally

USFS scores Johnson at the 93rd national percentile for wildfire risk to structures (in USFS's highest wildfire-risk band nationally), a figure built from 334 real buildings rather than raw vegetation cover. (Source: USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities methodology.)

Fire likelihood alone (USFS's burn-probability figure) ranks Johnson at the 94th national percentile — 1 points above its risk-to-structures score, a gap driven by how much is actually built there.

Where Johnson's buildings actually sit

334Total buildings
100%Direct exposure
0%Indirect exposure
0%Minimal exposure

Of Johnson's 334 counted buildings, 100% carry Direct exposure and only 0% carry Minimal — a lopsided split that puts defensible-space clearing ahead of vents or roofing as the intervention worth doing first.

How Johnson compares

Inside Oklahoma, Johnson sits at just the 63rd percentile even though it scores 93rd nationally — the state's overall wildfire exposure is high enough to make this a relatively quiet corner of it. Among the 31,521 US communities USFS scores, Johnson ranks 2,303 for wildfire risk (1 is highest) and 20,724 by building count (1 is largest). Within Oklahoma alone, it ranks 313 of 834 places by risk. See the full county-by-county picture for Oklahoma on its state page.

What this risk score means for insurance

Johnson's very high rating (93rd percentile) puts it among the places where the national carrier-pullback trend is most relevant — not a guarantee of a coverage problem, but a reason to shop rather than assume.

Hardening a home in Johnson

Johnson's 100% Direct-exposure share means lot clearing around the structure typically outweighs any single material upgrade here. The home-hardening guide ranks the options for a place shaped like this.

Where Johnson's figures come from

Every one of the two percentiles behind Johnson's 2,303-place national rank traces to USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities dataset — see the methodology guide. The exposure-zones guide covers what Johnson's dominant direct exposure actually means, with real examples from across the dataset.
