Lakeside Village, OK
Lakeside Village, OK's wildfire risk, in USFS's own numbers
Out of every US place USFS scores, Lakeside Village lands at the 93rd percentile for wildfire risk to structures — in USFS's highest wildfire-risk band nationally — a figure built from its 164 buildings, not the land around them. (Source: USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities methodology.)
Fire likelihood alone (USFS's burn-probability figure) ranks Lakeside Village at the 93rd national percentile — 0 points above its risk-to-structures score, a gap driven by how much is actually built there.
What "at risk" means for the buildings here
164 buildings are counted in Lakeside Village, and 61% of them are Indirect exposure — ember-driven risk rather than the 26.2% in Direct exposure or the 12.8% rated Minimal.
How Lakeside Village compares
Lakeside Village ranks lower within Oklahoma (64th percentile statewide) than its 93rd national percentile suggests alone — a calmer spot in a state where wildfire risk generally runs high. Among the 31,521 US communities USFS scores, Lakeside Village ranks 2,270 for wildfire risk (1 is highest) and 26,265 by building count (1 is largest). Within Oklahoma alone, it ranks 303 of 834 places by risk. See the full county-by-county picture for Oklahoma on its state page.
Shopping for coverage in Lakeside Village
Lakeside Village'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.
What would actually reduce this score
With ember exposure the dominant pattern in Lakeside Village (61% Indirect), vent screens and roofing material tend to matter more than lot clearing alone. The home-hardening guide covers both.
More on how this number was built
Lakeside Village's 93rd-percentile score and its burn-probability figure both come from the same USFS workbook, documented in the methodology guide. For more on what indirect exposure implies beyond Lakeside Village, see the exposure-zones guide.
