Limaville, OH

Limaville, OH's wildfire risk, in USFS's own numbers

Moderate
32ndpercentile nationally

Limaville sits at the 32nd percentile nationally for wildfire risk to structures — close to the middle of USFS's national wildfire-risk range — per USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities model, built from its 116 counted buildings, not vegetation cover alone. (Source: USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities methodology.)

Separately from the risk score above, Limaville's burn probability — fire likelihood with no building count factored in — sits at the 33rd percentile nationally.

Where Limaville ranks

Limaville's 71st-percentile standing inside Ohio outpaces its 32nd national percentile — this is a hotter spot than most of its own state, even though the state as a whole runs cooler nationally. Among the 31,521 US communities USFS scores, Limaville ranks 21,340 for wildfire risk (1 is highest) and 28,377 by building count (1 is largest). Within Ohio alone, it ranks 367 of 1,264 places by risk. See the full county-by-county picture for Ohio on its state page.

Limaville and the insurance market

Limaville's moderate rating (32nd percentile nationally) sits outside the range where wildfire risk alone reshapes an insurance market — still, a homeowner here loses nothing by comparing rates.

Lowering exposure, not just insuring around it

Because 55.2% of Limaville'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.

Where Limaville's figures come from

Every one of the two percentiles behind Limaville's 21,340-place national rank traces to USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities dataset — see the methodology guide. The exposure-zones guide covers what Limaville's dominant indirect exposure actually means, with real examples from across the dataset.
