What "at risk" means for the buildings here
Direct exposure dominates in Kenefic: 92% of its 125 buildings, versus 8% Indirect and 0% Minimal. Clearing space around a structure changes the outcome here more than any single building-material swap.
Where Kenefic ranks

Shopping for coverage in Kenefic
Kenefic's 93rd-percentile, very high rating is the kind of score behind a broader national pattern: insurers pulling back from the highest wildfire-risk markets, non-renewing or declining new policies outright, most visibly in California. Shopping around, not assuming automatic renewal, tends to matter here.
