Leedey, OK
Leedey, OK's wildfire risk, in USFS's own numbers
Leedey's 437 buildings earn a 96th-percentile wildfire-risk score nationally under USFS's model — in USFS's highest wildfire-risk band 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 Leedey at the 96th percentile, close to its 96th-percentile risk score.
Leedey's building exposure, zone by zone
Indirect exposure is dominant in Leedey (82.2% of 437 buildings): far enough from burnable vegetation to avoid flame contact, close enough for wind-blown embers. Only 17.9% sit in the Direct zone.
Where Leedey ranks
There's little gap between Leedey's 96th national percentile and its 86th percentile inside Oklahoma, which means the state comparison mostly confirms what the national score already shows. Among the 31,521 US communities USFS scores, Leedey ranks 1,266 for wildfire risk (1 is highest) and 18,524 by building count (1 is largest). Within Oklahoma alone, it ranks 119 of 834 places by risk. See the full county-by-county picture for Oklahoma on its state page.
Shopping for coverage in Leedey
Leedey's 96th-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.
Hardening a home in Leedey
Because 82.2% of Leedey's buildings sit in the Indirect zone, sealing the ember pathway (vents, roofing, gutters) is the intervention this page's data actually supports — see the home-hardening guide.
