Lambert, OK
Lambert, OK's wildfire risk, in USFS's own numbers
Lambert's 13 buildings earn a 18th-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 Lambert at the 11th percentile, close to its 18th-percentile risk score.
What "at risk" means for the buildings here
100% of Lambert's 13 buildings sit in USFS's Minimal exposure zone, with only 0% rated Direct — risk here comes from regional burn probability more than proximity to burnable vegetation at the structure itself. This is a small settlement by building count — 13 total — so these shares describe a handful of structures, not a statistical average across thousands.
Lambert against the rest of the country
Inside Oklahoma, Lambert sits at just the 1st percentile even though it scores 18th nationally — the state's overall wildfire exposure is high enough to make this a relatively quiet corner of it. Among the 31,521 US communities USFS scores, Lambert ranks 25,821 for wildfire risk (1 is highest) and 31,500 by building count (1 is largest). Within Oklahoma alone, it ranks 829 of 834 places by risk. See the full county-by-county picture for Oklahoma on its state page.
Lambert and the insurance market
At the 18th national percentile, Lambert rates low for wildfire risk — well short of the threshold where insurers have been withdrawing coverage, though comparing a quote costs nothing either way.
Hardening a home in Lambert
Lambert's 100% Minimal-exposure share means structure-level hardening matters less here than it would elsewhere — still worth the low-cost basics, per the home-hardening guide.
More on how this number was built
Every one of the two percentiles behind Lambert's 25,821-place national rank traces to USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities dataset — see the methodology guide. At 13 buildings, Lambert is close to the size where USFS's data gets thin — the data-quality guide explains why 517 places nationally get no score at all.
