Maplewood Park, OH
Maplewood Park, OH's wildfire risk, in USFS's own numbers
USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities model puts Maplewood Park at the 34th national percentile for risk to structures, close to the middle of USFS's national wildfire-risk range — a score built from 198 actual buildings. (Source: USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities methodology.)
Fire likelihood alone (USFS's burn-probability figure) ranks Maplewood Park at the 35th national percentile — 1 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
86.4% of Maplewood Park's 198 buildings sit in USFS's Direct exposure zone, roughly 171 structures close enough to burnable vegetation for flame contact, not just embers — 13.6% fall in the Indirect, ember-only zone and 0% are Minimal.
Where Maplewood Park ranks
Compare Maplewood Park's two percentiles: 73rd within Ohio, only 34th nationally — a gap of 40 points that marks it as unusually exposed for its own state.

What this risk score means for insurance
Maplewood Park's moderate wildfire rating (34th percentile) isn't the kind of score driving the carrier pullback making news in the highest-risk Western markets — but a standard homeowners quote is still worth comparing on its own terms.
