Lincoln Heights (Hamilton), OH
Lincoln Heights (Hamilton), OH's wildfire risk, in USFS's own numbers
USFS scores Lincoln Heights (Hamilton) at the 13th national percentile for wildfire risk to structures (among the lower wildfire-risk places nationally), a figure built from 1,181 real buildings rather than raw vegetation cover. (Source: USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities methodology.)
Separately from the risk score above, Lincoln Heights (Hamilton)'s burn probability — fire likelihood with no building count factored in — sits at the 14th percentile nationally.
Where Lincoln Heights (Hamilton)'s buildings actually sit
Most of Lincoln Heights (Hamilton)'s buildings (93.1% of 1,181) fall outside USFS's Direct and Indirect zones entirely — that doesn't zero out the score above, it means the risk is regional, not structure-by-structure.

Lincoln Heights (Hamilton) and the insurance market
Lincoln Heights (Hamilton)'s low rating (13th 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
Even with 93.1% of Lincoln Heights (Hamilton) outside USFS's Direct and Indirect zones, basic hardening — gutter maintenance, ember-resistant vents — is inexpensive relative to the regional burn-probability risk noted above. Details in the home-hardening guide.
