Kenwood, OH
Kenwood, OH's wildfire risk, in USFS's own numbers
Kenwood's 2,779 buildings earn a 16th-percentile wildfire-risk score nationally under USFS's model — among the lower wildfire-risk places nationally. (Source: USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities methodology.)
USFS's separate burn-probability score — fire likelihood alone, before counting what's built there — puts Kenwood at the 18th percentile, close to its 16th-percentile risk score.
What "at risk" means for the buildings here
Kenwood rates 37.1% Minimal exposure against just 35.6% Direct and 27.3% Indirect — of 2,779 buildings counted, few sit close enough to burnable vegetation for USFS to flag them individually.
How Kenwood compares
Within Ohio, Kenwood ranks higher (45th percentile) than it does nationally (16th) — one of the more fire-exposed places in a state that, overall, scores lower than that. Among the 31,521 US communities USFS scores, Kenwood ranks 26,416 for wildfire risk (1 is highest) and 5,806 by building count (1 is largest). Within Ohio alone, it ranks 700 of 1,264 places by risk.

Shopping for coverage in Kenwood
At the 16th national percentile, Kenwood rates low for wildfire risk — well short of the threshold where insurers have been withdrawing coverage, though comparing a quote costs nothing either way.
What would actually reduce this score
With 37.1% of buildings rated Minimal exposure, Kenwood gets less benefit from structure hardening than a Direct- or Indirect-dominant place would — the home-hardening guide explains why the zone matters.
