Jolivue, VA's wildfire risk, in USFS's own numbers
Jolivue's 573 buildings earn a 57th-percentile wildfire-risk score nationally under USFS's model — modestly above the national average for wildfire risk. (Source: USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities methodology.)
Fire likelihood alone (USFS's burn-probability figure) ranks Jolivue at the 58th national percentile — 1 points above its risk-to-structures score, a gap driven by how much is actually built there.
Jolivue's building exposure, zone by zone
57.6% of Jolivue's 573 buildings fall in USFS's Indirect exposure zone — ember cast rather than direct flame — against 42.4% Direct and 0% Minimal. Vent screens and roofing material matter more here than lot clearing alone.
