Juarez, TX
Juarez, TX's wildfire risk, in USFS's own numbers
USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities model puts Juarez at the 56th national percentile for risk to structures, modestly above the national average for wildfire risk — a score built from 212 actual buildings. (Source: USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities methodology.)
USFS's separate burn-probability score — fire likelihood alone, before counting what's built there — puts Juarez at the 60th percentile, close to its 56th-percentile risk score.
Juarez's building exposure, zone by zone
Only 32.1% of Juarez's 212 buildings carry Direct exposure and 0% carry Indirect; the remaining 67.9% are Minimal, which shifts the risk driving this page's score toward the surrounding landscape rather than any one structure.
Where Juarez ranks
Juarez's 56th national percentile looks worse in isolation than its 11th ranking inside Texas does — this place is on the milder end for its own state, by 46 points. Among the 31,521 US communities USFS scores, Juarez ranks 13,788 for wildfire risk (1 is highest) and 24,418 by building count (1 is largest). Within Texas alone, it ranks 1,602 of 1,795 places by risk. See the full county-by-county picture for Texas on its state page.
Shopping for coverage in Juarez
At the 56th national percentile, Juarez rates elevated for wildfire risk — well short of the threshold where insurers have been withdrawing coverage, though comparing a quote costs nothing either way.
Lowering exposure, not just insuring around it
With 67.9% of buildings rated Minimal exposure, Juarez gets less benefit from structure hardening than a Direct- or Indirect-dominant place would — the home-hardening guide explains why the zone matters.
