Miamisburg, OH
How exposed is Miamisburg to wildfire?
Miamisburg's 8,873 buildings earn a 17th-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 Miamisburg at the 19th percentile, close to its 17th-percentile risk score.
Where Miamisburg's buildings actually sit
Most of Miamisburg's buildings (88.2% of 8,873) 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. At 8,873 buildings, this is a substantial built environment, so the shares below describe a real population of structures, not a handful of edge cases.
Miamisburg against the rest of the country

Among the 31,521 US communities USFS scores, Miamisburg ranks 26,293 for wildfire risk (1 is highest) and 1,875 by building count (1 is largest). Within Ohio alone, it ranks 689 of 1,264 places by risk. See the full county-by-county picture for Ohio on its state page.
Miamisburg and the insurance market
Miamisburg's low wildfire rating (17th 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.
Hardening a home in Miamisburg
With 88.2% of buildings rated Minimal exposure, Miamisburg gets less benefit from structure hardening than a Direct- or Indirect-dominant place would — the home-hardening guide explains why the zone matters.
