Junction City, OR
Junction City, OR's wildfire risk, in USFS's own numbers
USFS scores Junction City at the 14th national percentile for wildfire risk to structures (among the lower wildfire-risk places nationally), a figure built from 2,570 real buildings rather than raw vegetation cover. (Source: USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities methodology.)
USFS's separate burn-probability score — fire likelihood alone, before counting what's built there — puts Junction City at the 17th percentile, close to its 14th-percentile risk score.
What "at risk" means for the buildings here
95.4% of Junction City's 2,570 buildings sit in USFS's Minimal exposure zone, with only 1.6% rated Direct — risk here comes from regional burn probability more than proximity to burnable vegetation at the structure itself.
Where Junction City ranks
Junction City's risk sits at a similar level relative to Oregon (7th percentile statewide) as it does nationally (14th) — this place isn't unusual for its own state either way. Among the 31,521 US communities USFS scores, Junction City ranks 27,210 for wildfire risk (1 is highest) and 6,162 by building count (1 is largest). Within Oregon alone, it ranks 390 of 420 places by risk. See the full county-by-county picture for Oregon on its state page.
Junction City and the insurance market
Junction City's 14th-percentile score lands in Oregon, the only two states requiring a wildfire disclosure at sale. Oregon's own hazard map feeds directly into that disclosure requirement. The disclosure-law guide covers what it requires.
Hardening a home in Junction City
With 95.4% of buildings rated Minimal exposure, Junction City gets less benefit from structure hardening than a Direct- or Indirect-dominant place would — the home-hardening guide explains why the zone matters.
